Hi Handry,

'Come with' suggests 'accompany'.

I agree with Alan . It suggests accompany and partnership.

Hi!
Explain me please why it can't be: Will you come TO me to the store? If the person works there for exemple.

And if we use "with me" I thought it have to be "go with me" but not "come". Am I wrong?

'Go with me' and 'come with me' are both fine.

I think 'come with me' accompany me and 'come to me' means come towards me or near to me.

Perhaps, macs, but 'to' does not work with this test sentence.
