Jul 13, 2015 at 20:27 | comment | added | Hot Licks | I think in any situation like this you need to make clear whether you're taking the individual to their place or yours. You can't rely on the implications of "take" vs "bring" or any other linguistic subtlety. This is especially true where beer (or some other "adult beverage") is involved. | |

Apr 13, 2012 at 0:49 | comment | added | FumbleFingers | @Abel: Also have a look at this Wikipedia article re the Irish usage which may not be explicitly mentioned on our earlier answers. In essence, to some speakers it's irrelevant which direction anything goes - all that matters is whether possession is being transferred to another person. | |
