Talk:go clubbing

RFD discussion: November 2017–January 2018
NISOP? seems like go + gerund, like go swimming, go running, go wenching etc. --Spreaderofwords (talk) 19:24, 18 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Seems Sum of Parts to me. Why did DCDuring add it? ---&#62; Tooironic (talk) 03:14, 19 November 2017 (UTC)


 * Delete. Reduce to clubbing or even club. People go fishing and go hiking and go walking. Equinox ◑ 03:17, 19 November 2017 (UTC)


 * (They aren't as cool as the people who go clubbing though. Earlier I was out and somehow their YouTube broke and started stuttering and jumping like an old vinyl record. "IS THIS SKRILLEX" I said. Then everyone laughed and kissed me, then I won the lottery.) Equinox ◑ 03:19, 19 November 2017 (UTC)

Delete or make a redirect. But should add a usage note at "club" def 4 that it is most commonly used in this construction.- Sonofcawdrey (talk) 03:54, 19 November 2017 (UTC)
 * For why I added it, see Beer parlour/2017/August. (Note that no one has added any translations.) In my Wiktionary I would have a usage example with the expression at club (not a citation BTW). A redirect would be a useful addition. But this isn't my Wiktionary. DCDuring (talk) 11:34, 19 November 2017 (UTC)
 * there was already one, but I've added . --Barytonesis (talk) 12:27, 19 November 2017 (UTC)

 * A thought on this - my impression is that "went clubbing" is the only widespread past tense of "go clubbing", which is a distinction from other verbs. You can say with equal facility that someone went fishing, swimming, running, hiking, etc., or that they fished, swam, ran, or hiked, but I don't think you would usually say that someone "clubbed". bd2412 T 04:27, 15 December 2017 (UTC)
