Bring Take Fetch/Get The use of bring and take is confusing for many students. The choice between bring or take depends on the location of the speaker. If the speaker refers to something that is at her current location, she uses bring. Generally, use bring when something moves from there to here. Examples: I'm glad you brought me to this shop. It's great! If the speaker refers to something that has been moved to a different location, she uses take. Generally, use take when something moves from here to there. Examples: The coach took the boys to football field. Fetch/Get When speaking about going somewhere and getting something and then bringing it back, use get (American English) or fetch (British English). Examples: Could you get the newspaper? Do you understand the rules? Test your knowledge with this bring, take, fetch, get quiz. |
