“来”(lái)和“去”(qù)都是具有方向指示性的动词。“来”表示提到的地点趋向说话者，“去”表示提到的地点远离说话者。比如如果你在中国，本地人会问你“你是什么时候来中国的？”如果你要从中国去日本，你的朋友会问你“你什么时候去日本？”

Advanced Usage
Rules
“来”和“去”都可以跟别的动词搭配，表示动作的趋向。比如“进来”“进去”“出来”“出去”“回来”“回去”等等。但是有一个规则，就是在它们搭配其他动词之后形成的趋向动词都不能有宾语。 汉语初学者经常犯的一个错误就是会说“我回来中国。”其实是不对的，我们可以说“我回中国。”或者“我回中国来。” 关于这部分我们在Direction complement中详细解释。
Examples
