The adjective "gone" has a couple of meanings. I can't list all of them here, so it will be great if you can look up from the dictionary yourself.  Some of the meanings are: dead, pregnant, ended, past, missing, used up... etc
So, does "I am gone" sound grammatically correct to you now? If "gone" is an adjective, "be gone" is surely correct. |
So I can't say "I was gone to Rome", because here gone is not an adjective, but I should say "I had gone to Rome". Is it right?
