Ok! Let’s begin this new episode!

When do we use the word “BRING”?

1) “Bring” means to conduct something/someone to come with, to, or toward the speaker.

Examples:

“Jason, please bring me a beer.”

“He brought his brother to the hospital.”

When do we use the word TAKE?

2) “Take” means taking something/someone away from where you are, or when the person making the request is NOT at the intended destination.”

Examples:

“Am I allowed to take library books home with me?”

“Can I take you to the movies tonight?”

“Could you take these files to Jame’s office?”

The following examples will help you to remember the differences between “bring” and “take“:

Examples:

“You bring something/someone here, and you take something there. “

“You bring something/someone toward a person, and you take something away from a person.”

So far, so good?

Ok. Let’s continue.

When do we use the word CARRY?

3) To “carry” means to move while holding something/someone, in a vehicle, in our hand or body. We use it when the person making the request is NOT at the intended destination.

Examples:

“Bill, would you please carry my suitcase?”

“Tom is carrying me in his arms.”

(END OF THE EXTRACT).
