"I went to England last year."

Translation: Chuaigh mé go Sasana anuraidh.

When is it go dti, as in go dti an choisir, and when is it just go, as in go Sasana?

[galaxyrocker]

Use go dtí with the definite article.

[Hopswatch]

That was actually extremely useful. One of those small things that really helps a lot.

[khmanuel]

OK!

[djzeus01]

And I just had an answer where the correct answer was given as: ... go dtí Baile Átha Cliath. Was that right?

[Prony-dH-Bray]

You have to use go dtí with the definite article. But you can use it without. On the other hand 'go' cannot/would not/should not be used alone with definite article...

[JohnCholew]

So that means "Chuaigh mé go dtí Sasana anuradh" should not have been rejected, right?

[Eolasabu]

Is ‘an bhilain seo chaite’ not just as good anuraidh

[Eolasabu]

Is ‘an bhliain seo chaite’ just as good as anuraidh

[-Draoi-]

Can you say "Chuaigh mé go dti an Sasana anuraidh"?

[AnSeabhac]

I don't think so as there's no definite article (an) before Sasana. England is just Sasana. France, Spain, etc are, however, An Fhrainc/An Spáinn, etc. You only use "go dtí" before the definite article the (an/na) or a definite phrase. Thus, Chuaigh mé go Sasana but Chuaigh mé go dtí An Fhrainc/An Spáinn.(http://www.daltai.com/forums/viewthread/927/)

[AnSeabhac]

"D'imigh mé go Sasana anuraidh" is 100% correct so I reported it. I'll never finish this Level 8!

Slightly different meaning. What you wrote translates to "I left to England last year".

[SatharnPHL]

"I went away to England" or "I left for England" would be better translations of d'imigh mé.
