Hi Arunamma,
It has a number of meanings depending on what you use it with. The following are from the Oxford Learner's Dictionary. You might find it useful.
go over something 1 to examine or check something carefully Go over your work before you hand it in.
2 to study something carefully, especially by repeating it He went over the events of the day in his mind (= thought about them carefully).
go over (to…) to move from one place to another, especially when this means crossing something such as a room, town or city He went over and shook hands with his guests. Many Irish people went over to America during the famine.
go over to somebody/something (in broadcasting) to change to a different person or place for the next part of a broadcast We are now going over to the news desk for an important announcement.
go over to something to change from one side, opinion, habit, etc. to another Two Conservative MPs have gone over to the Liberal Democrats.
go over (with somebody) (North American English) to be received in a particular way by somebody The news of her promotion went over well with her colleagues. _________________ Cheers m' dears! |

Haii Alan, Actually we cant follow yout test. This is very difficult and we beginner so we need more simple sentence related to daily life. So please make a class about conversion, daily life conversion. It would be more helpful than these type of tests.

Because it's the wrong word. 'Against' means 'in opposition to' If you go against someone you go in opposition to them.
Here, 'go over to' means 'connect with (the forecaster in the studio)'. _________________ Cheers m' dears! |

| Hello, Torsten/Alan. I did the test and I scored 10 out 10 correctly in the first attempt. I think I am improving my learning English step by step. Another thing, I am talking more frequently in the forum. Could you give me feedback about it? Thanks. |
