take a walk
Perambulate the neighborhood
Take a walk means to go for a leisurely stroll, usually on foot and without urgent purpose: Let's take a walk around the neighborhood.
The phrase often implies getting fresh air or clearing one's head.
To tell someone to take a walk is to dismiss them rudely—get lost, go away: When he asked for a refund, they told him to take a walk.
