意思
To go to your bed in order to sleep.
文化背景
Bedtime is often strictly enforced for children, usually between 7 PM and 9 PM, to allow parents 'adult time' in the evening. The concept of 'Inemuri' (sleeping while present) means people might not 'go to bed' in the traditional sense during the day, but nighttime 'going to bed' is still a clear routine. Due to the late dinner culture, 'going to bed' often happens much later than in the UK or US, frequently after midnight. A 'hot water bottle' is a traditional cultural accompaniment when one 'goes to bed' in the winter to keep the sheets warm.
The 'The' Rule
Remember: No 'the' for sleep! This is the #1 mistake for learners.
Preposition 'With'
Be careful using 'with' after 'go to bed' as it implies a sexual relationship.
