interest to the people at the destination’
む来び and む行でび literally mean that someone comes or goes after having done something, but these む-form constructions mean more than just that a sequence of events
happens. They are used frequently because they have come to express that one’s action has its consequences for other people. The activities preceding the coming or going are considered consequential to what happens at the destination, hence of interest to the party at the destination. In this sense, the use of these constructions implies ‘foresight’, ‘preparedness’, or ‘concern’ for the common interest of a group. They are better suited to enhancing the sense of group solidarity than the more detached counterparts without む来び and む行でび.
