What is the difference between 지나다 and 지나가다?
My dictionary lists both words (지나다 and 지나가다) as meaning "to pass by". Is there any difference between these words? If so, in what situations would the different words be used?

The meaning is same, and they are interchangeable in most cases,
but sometimes one is more natural than the other depending on the context.
