Hi

make for is a phrasal verb with the meaning 'move in the direction of smth.''

If you say: We are making for the town, this simply means that we are going in a direction towards the town - that is as it were our destination.

Make for the town?

Hi!

Thanks a lot!

Actually, I thought it was a phrasal verb.
I was looking it up in dictionary.com but, I
don?t know why, I missed it. Very Happy I have gone
to the site again, and I found it! Razz

Thanks indeed!

Have a magical Saturday night!
