The word “going” functions in literature as a versatile tool to indicate movement, transition, and future intent. In some texts, it marks forthcoming actions or plans, as when characters declare intentions—“he was going to town” ([1]) or “I’m going to be an athlete” ([2])—thereby propelling the narrative forward. It can also describe continuous processes and changes, such as in “things suddenly going smoothly” ([3]) or profound social transformations that are “going on” ([4]). Moreover, “going” sometimes conveys the immediacy of character actions or emotional states, for instance, “my brains were going round” in a moment of frenzy ([5]), or it subtly indicates movement through space and time, as in characters “going down” in their daily routines ([6]). Thus, across various literary contexts—from adventure epics to introspective dramas—the term captures diverse dimensions of progress, action, and change.
