Hi teachers,
Would 'goes away' and 'going away' be synonyms for 'departs' and 'leaving' respectively in the following sentences?
Booking Clerk: Your train departs (goes away) from platform four.
Peter: Oh, the train is leaving (going away) now.
The idea is just to give that definition to the students to explain 'depart' and 'leave'.
Thanks in advance.
