How to Say ‘Move together!’ in Japanese

みんなでうごく!

minna de ugoku

[min-nah deh]

💬 Usage Tip: [みんなで] means "all together," and then the verb follows: [みんなでうごく]. This pattern is easy to reuse: [みんなでまもる] "defend together," [みんなでいく] "go together."

🇯🇵 In Japan: For youth coaching, this sounds natural and positive because it stresses team movement instead of singling one child out. That's often a better fit when guiding young kids in Japan too.
