πορευθῶ

poreúomai

I go

To proceed or travel from one place to another, to go; in extended or figurative contexts, to carry on a course of action, conduct one’s life, or, less commonly, to depart (often meaning to die, in euphemism). The primary meaning is related to physical movement or journey, but in Koine Greek the verb frequently acquires a metaphorical sense of living or behaving in a certain way, or of embarking on a particular course (of conduct or fate).

I might go

Morphological NotesVerb; aorist tense (simple action), passive form (deponent/middle in meaning), subjunctive mood (potential/contingent), 1st person singular.
Rendering RationaleThe aorist subjunctive expresses a simple, undefined act viewed as potential or contingent, hence "might go." Although morphologically passive, the verb is deponent in Koine Greek and carries an active, middle sense of proceeding or journeying.
