Variations of the verb Chodzić

What I have thus far:

chodzić = walk
wychodzić = to leave
wchodzić = to climb (ladder)
obchodzić = to walk around something / circumvent, celebrate (nie obchodzę walentynek), care about (co to mnie obchodzi?)
odchodzić = to deviate from, depart from
przychodzić = to come
przechodzić = to walk through
podchodzić = to climb up (mountain, stairs) (podchodzę pod górę)
schodzić = to climb down (mountain, stairs)
zachodzić = take place, arise, set(sun) (zachodzi słoneczko), ile razy zachodzi potrzeba = as often as need arises (is needed)
pochodzić = derive from, descend from, come from
nachodzić = intrude on, haunt

Because 'pod' can mean 'under', podchodzę pod górę is horribly counter-intuitive. I under walk under the mountain = I climb up the mountain??? I've also heard another one of the chodzić forms for "climbing up the mountain" but can't remember which one(s). Can wchodzić be used?

Is wchodzić used for anything other than climbing a ladder/stairs?
Not sure when someone would use pochodzić. For walking down stairs/mountain I'd use schodzić or pochodzić? Examples appreciated :)
I haven't seen obchodzić used for the "walk around/circumvent" meaning. Do people use it?
For "he has arrived" would I say "on już przychodził" Can I say, "On przybył"

Thanks!

Obchodzić święto = to celebrate a holday/festival (among those definitions)

"przybyć" means "to arrive"/"come", inspecific, but probably on foot in formal Polish. Otherwise "przyjść" (perfective)/"przychodzić" (imperfective). Polish is pretty specific in this way (like Russian) compared with English:

"I CAME by air." "I CAME by car." etc... In Polish "przylecieć" (perfective - dokonany)/przylatać (imperfective - niedokonany) = to arrive by flight, "przyjechać" (perfective)/przyjeżdzić (imperfective) = to arrive by car, train etc..

doesn't on przyszedł mean 'he arrived' by foot, as opposed to car, air, boat, etc?
Since przybyć is more neutral, would I sound weird if I use it for all cases?

What are the transport verb groups in polish:
chodzić/iść/pojść = by foot?
llatać/lecieć/polecieć = by air
pływać/płynąć/popłynąć = by water
jeżdzić/jechać/pojechać = by land vehicle
Can't remember others, but I think 'to slither like a snake' is one of them.

dochodzić
nadchodzić
rozchodzić
uchodzić
wschodzić

"chodzić" is always "iterative", "iść" indeterminate and "pójść" determinate in Polish!

Chodzę do szkoły. (codziennie = every day), Idę do szkoły. (teraz = now) and Pójdę do szkoły. (jutro, później, w przyszłości = tomorrow, later [on], in future)

I think this means that you're underneath the mountain so to speak, and about to start climbing it. I'm not Polish though and am learning myself, so if anyone Polish is reading this, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.


Wchodzę na górę - I climb up the mountain, or for example to a top floor flat in a tower block.
If I was just going upstairs i would be inclined to say idę do góry.


Pochodzę po sklepach - I walk around the shops. This is more of a general term, I'm not walking around looking for a specific shop.

It can also be used when someone asks where you are from:
Pochodzę z Gdańska - I come from Gdańsk.


Schodzić for climbing down e.g Schodzę z góry/drabiny - I climb down the mountain/ladder
Or just idę na dół - I go down

Can't help with the rest I'm afraid. Hopefully I haven't made any glaring mistakes, but this is good practice for me as well :)
