Rule reminder

Italian movement verbs go far beyond 'andare/venire': 'recarsi' (to go/proceed to — formal, deliberate), 'dirigersi verso' (to head towards), 'avviarsi' (to set off, to make one's way), 'partire' (to leave, to set out), 'arrivare/giungere' (giungere is formal), 'raggiungere' (to reach/join), 'tornare/ritornare' (return; ritornare is slightly more emphatic), 'procedere' (to proceed — formal). Register ranges from neutral to formal/written.
