In Idemo dalje kroz park, what exactly does idemo mean? Is it we go or let’s go?

Idemo is:

• 1st person plural present tense of ići (to go): mi idemo = we go / we are going
• In practice, it is very often used with the meaning “let’s go” (a suggestion or invitation).

So in context:

• Idemo dalje. = We keep going / Let’s go on.

In this sentence it is both descriptive (we are continuing) and a mild suggestion (let’s continue), depending on context and tone.

Why is there no word for we (like mi) in the sentence?

In Croatian, subject pronouns (ja, ti, on, mi, vi, oni) are usually dropped because the verb ending already shows the subject.

• Idemo already tells you the subject is we (1st person plural).
• Mi idemo dalje kroz park is grammatically correct, but mi is only used:
  • for emphasis (Mi idemo, a vi ostanite. – We are going, and you stay.), or
  • to contrast with someone else.
