Penggunaan dan Contoh Kalimat Bring Serta Take – Bring dan take ialah dua kata yang membingungkan dalam bahasa Inggris. Dua kata ini memiliki makna yang mirip, sehingga sering sekali kita salah menggunakannya. Sebenarnya masalahnya cuma satu, LOKASI. Bring ialah acara menjinjing sesuatu ke lokasi pembicara, sementara take yakni aktivitas mengambil dan menjinjing sesuatu namun tidak menyerahkannya ke lokasi pembicara (menyerahkannya ke daerah lain). Penjelasan lengkapnya adalah selaku berikut:
