Communication Briefings
The word pair "bring/take" confuses many writers. Remember these guidelines and you will be sure to choose the right word: When you go, you take, and when you come, you bring.
Wrong: "When we go to lunch, I will bring a copy of the report."
Right: "When we go to lunch, I will take my copy of the report."
Right: "When I come to the restaurant, I will bring my copy of the report."
