    Yes. We regularly say “go to [verb]”.

    Go to eat
    Go to learn
    Go to exercise

    Saying “go to sleep” is exectly the same.

      Not exactly. Compare being told “Go to sleep!” with “Go to eat!” “Go to learn!” “Go to exercise!” It makes sense grammatically, but nobody says it like that. They sound like something a non-native speaker would say.

        It is grammatically correct to use them. It’s the same rule. We’re just used to using/hearing one but not the others.

          Yes, I said it was grammatically correct. However, one phrase is actually used by native speakers of the language, the others are not. So there is a difference.
