Questions about example sentences with, and the definition and usage of "Walk"
The meaning of "Walk" in various phrases and sentences
Q:
What does let's walk through mean?
A:
The full phrase is “walk through this.“
It relies on an image. Imagine you’re standing at the opening of a tunnel. The person says to you “let’s walk through this together.“ you may be scared to go into the dark tunnel by yourself. It makes you feel better to go with another person.
The phrase “walk through this“ tends to have a sense of working through a project together. It is even more common to have the full phrase “walk through this together.“
There is also a sense of “walking versus running.“ If there is a great sense of urgency in rushing, a person may suggest to “walk through a topic“ rather than “run through the subject.“ In that sense, it has more emphasis on slowing the pace than it does having company.
Like most things in language, context is important to understand the phrase‘s full meaning.

Q:
Describe a long walk you ever had:
Last summer, I went on an errand to a nearby city. When I came back in the evening, my phone was dead. Having no cash, I decided to walk home from the train station, which shouldn't have been a long walk except that I ran into an old friend I hadn't talk to since high school.
After catching up with each other a little bit, he came out to me as gay. He also told me he was kept as a toy boy by a rich Hongkonger. I was instantly intrigued. We then took a detour to a nearby park so that I could get more wild story out of him.
It wasn't until late night that I got home, but earlier that day, I told my parents I'd be back by 8:30. They were seriously worried. They said they tried to call me repeatedly but couldn't get through, and were literally planning to call the cops.
So the unexpected long night walk itself was quite enjoyable, but next time I'll make sure to take a portable charger with me. 🤦🏻♀️ Does this sound natural?
