It looks like the book you`re using isn`t defining these well. With that type of explanation, it would be really easy to become confused!

行く is quite literally "to go" - For example, to go to the store, to go to school, etc.
出る on the other hand is to *leave* something, or to "get out of/ go outside something". A good example is left the building, left the park, etc. You were inside of something or some space, but have left it.

This one too is a pretty bad explanation on the part of the book.

思う is the type of "think" you use when you say - I think that`s a good idea! Or I think so too.

考える is more "to think about something". He thought about his school work, etc.

In both of the cases, both words are used very regularly.


If anyone is trying to find me… Tamyuun on Instagram is probably the easiest.
