The verb aller means to go.
Here's how to say I go/I'm going and you go/you're going in French:
Je vais à l'école
I go to school / I'm going to school
Tu vas au travail
You go to work / You're going to work
Vous allez chez le docteur.
You go to the doctor. / You are going to the doctor.
Note that the verb form changes depending on who is acting.
Remember that in French, to say you, you will use either:
- tu to address one person you know well, i.e. "informal" and "singular"
- vous to address one person in a professional context, or that you don't know well, i.e. "formal" and "singular"
See Tu and vous are used for three types of you
