προέρχομαι (proέrⱪomai) — to move on / to go on / to go ahead

Notes: It is possible to analyze προβαίνω and προέρχομαι[a] as involving a reference point in space, in that the person’s initial position could constitute such a point. But it is equally possible to interpret the movement as being primarily related to the direction in which a person has already been moving.
