Let's go!

Where are we going?

(1)Let's go somewhere warm.

(2)Anywhere/somewhere.

(3)Let's go anywhere warm.

Can I say (3)?

If I say (1), I mean I want to go out but I haven't had any idea where to go yet. If I say 'anywhere,' I mean it doesn't matter where we are going;anywhere will do. About number 3, I've got zero hit on the Google. Emotion: crying

I want to express the idea that anywhere will do but it has to be a warm place.

H-E-L-P!

Thanks,

" part. " = Let's go out. I haven't yet decided on where we should go, but anywhere will be fine just as long as it's warm.

  • " part.
  • " = Let's go out.
  • I haven't yet decided on where we should go, but anywhere will be fine just as long as it's warm.
  • Anyway, "somewhere" is the word you want.
  • My natural inclination would be to use "someplace" instead, but that's just me.
