Jpn: start → leave/depart?
Actually 'start' was used like that, so the sentence is technically correct (but ambiguous and old-fashioned).
Probably it would only be used now where the context makes it obvious. e.g. "You must start for Coventry at once."
See http://www.sacred-texts.com/cla/aoto/aoto20.htm for an example from 1922 of its usage with pretty much no context. :-P
