Questions & Answers about junro o aruite, sakuhin o kanshoushi, satsuei mo shimashita.

Why is を used in 順路を歩いて even though 歩く is usually an intransitive verb?

In Japanese, を does not only mark a direct object. It can also mark the place or route that someone moves through.

So 順路を歩く means to walk along the route / follow the route on foot.

Common similar patterns are:

• 道を歩く = walk along the road
• 橋を渡る = cross the bridge
• 空を飛ぶ = fly through the sky

Here, 順路 is the path or course being followed, so を is natural.

What exactly does 順路 mean here?

順路 means the designated route, the prescribed course, or the official path to follow.

You often see it in places like:

• museums
• exhibitions
• tourist facilities
• buildings with a one-way flow

So in this sentence, it suggests something like following the marked route through an exhibit rather than just walking randomly.
