"go with" = "accept" and "go for" = "decide/opt" Explanation: the difference is pretty subtle -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 57 mins (2018-11-27 23:54:43 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- depends on the context too as very often either option would be ok but if you really have to differentiate, "go with" implies "accept/agree with" e.g. "I'll go with your proposal as I accept it" while "go for" could also include a measure of doubt e.g. If I have to decide between two different options, "I'll go for" means I'll pick the one I prefer -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2018-11-28 02:11:50 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- ok and "go with" here would be "I'll pick" -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2018-11-28 02:13:41 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- it's a toughie for sure so you "pick" -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2018-11-28 02:14:19 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- your English beats my Russian :) |
