Отивам is the basic verb for 'to go' in Bulgarian and is used for heading to a place or leaving for somewhere. In spoken Bulgarian, Отивам can mean 'I'm going now' (immediate action) or describe general plans. It contrasts with 'идвам' (to come) — use отивам when the speaker goes away toward another place.
