In a sentence

びょういん病院hospitalいった行ったwent

I went to the hospital

How it works

(to) marks 病院びょういん (hospital) as the destination of the movement. The verb 行くいく (go) shifts to plain past 行ったいった (went) — note the small tsu: 行くいく (go) is irregular and becomes 行ったいった (went), not the expected pattern. It's casual, with no です (is) or polite ending.
