那天上了堂文法課，內容是有關於 Bring 與 Take。
雖然這兩個單字的中文都是「帶」，但在外師的說明中兩個單字的差異…只不過這講解搞的頭都昏了 Orz，只好自己來查查資料。
Bring ≠ Take
根據外師的說法，雖然兩者的單字的中文都是「帶」，但 bring 和 take 其實是不同「方向」的反義詞。
以說話的人當基準：
- bring：表把某個東西從某處帶來（from there to here[to you]）
- take：表把某個東西帶走（from here to there[away from you]）
Bring
以方向性來說，bring 是讓物品往自身靠近，可以想像是把某個東西從外面帶來，這可以參考下面這張仿繪的圖示：
