The difference between bring and carry

Bring Vs Carry 

Bring and carry


 The verbs "bring" and "carry" both describe the act of transporting something from one place to another. However, they are used slightly differently in English.


"Bring" is used to describe the act of transporting something to the speaker or the location where the speaker is. For example:

Could you bring me a glass of water?

I'll bring the cake to the party.


"Carry" is used to describe the act of transporting something while holding it or supporting it in some way. It can also be used to describe the act of transporting something over a distance, especially if the distance is significant or the thing being transported is heavy. For example:

Can you carry these bags for me? They're too heavy for me to lift.

He carried the wounded soldier to safety.

In summary, "bring" is used to describe the act of transporting something to the speaker or to the location where the speaker is, while "carry" is used to describe the act of transporting something while holding or supporting it, or over a distance.


Here are some additional examples of the use of "bring" and "carry":

Bring:

  • Could you bring me the newspaper from the front porch?
  • She's bringing her new boyfriend to the family barbecue.
  • The doctor said to bring the medication with you to your next appointment.


Carry:

  • He carried the groceries all the way home from the store.
  • She carefully carried the fragile vase across the room.
  • The porter carried our luggage to the hotel room.


I hope these examples help to illustrate the difference between "bring" and "carry." Let me know if you have any other questions.
