How to use to take Learn English with Lucy


how many times have you asked someone to

take a coffee or to take a drink with

you well you're actually using in that

situation to take in the incorrect way

in this video I'm going to talk to you

about why take is such a special verb

the nouns that you can use it with and

then I'm going to go through the phrasal

verbs that have take in them so let's

get started

ah before we start obviously I would

like you to connect with me on all my

social media that's here I've got

Instagram Facebook Weibo and obviously

you can subscribe to me here on YouTube

for more free english lessons okay so

what makes the verb to take so special

well the answer is it's what we call a

light verb it's also known as a de

lexical verb as well and other verbs in

the light verb group are half gives make

do and go you might remember that I've

already done a video or make them do and

light verbs are verbs that when used on

their own they have very little meaning

but when partnered with another noun

they have much more meaning and the

specific nouns that go with specific

light verbs so today I'm going to talk

you through all of the nouns and

situations that take it can be used with

okay so to take can go with washing

nouns and resting nouns to take a shower

to take a bath to take a rest to take a

nap and to take a break a couple of

examples I need to take a shower before

we go and why don't you take a break now

these nouns are not strictly confined to

to take you can often use have in many

of these situations but knowing that

these verbs go with to take will

certainly help you with your writing and

also when it comes to understanding

native speakers okay so now I've got

some more examples of how we can use

take we can use to take with care and

this has two meanings in this case we

can say can you take care of my cat and

this means can you look after my cat or

take care when walk

alone at night and this means be careful

when walking alone at night then we have

a photo I often hear can you make a

photo or can you make me a photo make

would be create with my hands so we use

tape can you take a photo can you take a

picture we took loads of great photos

and a risk so again you don't make a

risk we take a risk I'll take a risk and

tell her I love her that's a big risk

always think twice before doing that

okay then a look take a look at my new

iPhone that's what you use when you are

showing something to somebody a walk we

took a walk in the park

nice thing to do after lunch and then

finally to take advantage of let's take

advantage of the good weather and go to

the beach now please remember that to

take advantage of can be both positive

and negative

sometimes you're taking advantage of

something in an unfair way so an example

would be don't take advantage of my

generosity

don't use my generosity to your

advantage okay now on to our beloved

phrasal verbs note this is just a list

of what I consider to be the most

important ones and if I went through all

of the options it would take hours so

I'm not going to pick you through that

so the first one is to take off this has

two meanings

so I'm hot I'll take off my jacket I'm

hot I'll remove my jacket the plane

takes off in 45 minutes the plane goes

into the air in 45 minutes

okay then we have take up which is to

start a hobby or sometimes a habit as

well so I've recently taken up skiing or

I've recently taken up smoking the

opposite of that would be to give up

I've given up smoking

I've given up skiing okay then we have

to take over let me take over you're

doing it wrong this means to get control

to take control let me take over let me

take control okay to take after this is

something that gets said to me rather a

lot many people say that I take after my

mother this can mean that I resemble my

mother in either character or appearance

or sometimes both okay

takeaway she took my phone away from me

okay and this again means removed in

this case she removes it and puts it in

another place take out you took me out

for dinner now when we say to take out

it often means to take someone to a

restaurant or a bar and you invite them

and you pay for it normally normally not

always ah well that's the end of my take
