Hi Min Min!
Love this site as always! Just wondering if 和 hé and / together with / with / sum / union / peace / harmony / Japanese related / Taiwan pr. [han4] is the same meaning as tong2? can I say… wo he ni yi qi qu = wo tong ni yi qi qu

Hi Mervin,
Yes. It is more common to say: 我和（同）你一起去。
But in some cases, you cannot use 和 to replace 同。
Like this children’s song : 当我们同在一起, and you cannot say 当我们(和)在一起, even though the 同 here means “together”
