Etymology 1
gon:, from gan:, from  (compare  gean, Dutch gaan:, Saxon/Low German gan:, German gehen:,  gå), from  'to leave' (compare Albanian ngaj 'to run', Ancient Greek kikhānein 'to meet with, arrive at', Avestan zazāmi 'I leave off', Sanskrit jáhāti 'he leaves'). Inherited past tense forms (compare eode:), however, have since the 15th century been replaced by forms from  wendan: 'to go, depart, wend'; this process is called suppletion.
