Today, I will talk about the difference between leave and leave for.
Leave
This focuses on departing somewhere.
He already left.
He left work early because his kid is sick.
On the other hand, leave for focuses on going somewhere-it focuses on the destination!
She left school.
It means she WAS at school but is not at school anymore.
She left for school.
This means she is GOING to school.
It's time to go to work.
It's time to leave for work.
Obviously, leave for sounds more formal than go to. Any questions?
Have a nice day!
