"That hospital is not good. Do not go."

Translation: 那家医院不好，不要去。

[XMVZiron]

What's the use of 家 in this context?

[Peter519121]

I'd like to know as well.

When I enter 'do not go' into a translator, it returns '不要走'. Should that be acceptable? Because 去 basically is 'to go to', is that why it is preferred.

[KTo228]

You use 不要走 to say "do not leave" , ie what you would say when you're with someone and you don't want them to go.

[richard711603]

Thank you. After reading your answer, I looked up 走. I see that one of the definitions is 'to leave'.

[FaizalZahid]

10 months and still no answer. I want to know this too.

[Rumactree]

I got it right but wondered: could I use 别 here? 你别去.

Or is that too strong?

[gimmesommandarin]

Can someone explain why you need 要 here in 不要去？

[EquanimousLingo]

要 is required because 不要 together means "don't". Used essentially as an imperative to not do something.
