"Hashtag" I am typing something or saying it so it is not using twitter so I need to let everyone who gets the message know that it is so worth listening to that it could even be worthy of being included in a twitter group.
Hashtag is a bit like lol. If something is funny I do not need to be prompted by lol. If it’s not funny then lol won’t make it so. If I want the reader to know my remark is a frivolous, light hearted comment then ! has worked perfectly well for scores of years. Let’s put lol back in its box.
Isn't that then also still correct? 'You can't take it with you..' from here-to-there - you are here, the afterlife is there. You could say 'you can't bring your wealth to heaven with you' that assumes you are then in heaven so you're speaking from the position of already having transitioned.
The trouble is that I can understand the logic but when I want to pick the correct word, it disappears. Maybe it's the Schrodinger's Cat of English grammar.
Right, so: You take your child to school but if their brother goes to another school , you take him to school first and bring her with you. You pick up your children to bring them home but you take them to the park on the way. Is that right?
Not sure! I would say that you take child1 to school and you take child2 with you. If you met someone at the school, you may say '..I brought child2 with me..' because you are then 'here' and home is there.
The second case is again future - you're plannin' to bring the children home, so home is here and where they are is there. So there-here is bring. If you were where they were then it would be take. As for going to the park on the way - are you mad, don't you know Covid's about and kids shouldn't be out (I'll give that as a freeby to Boris as a slogan)?
(added - take for the park bit - as again it's future and you will be with the kids so the plan is to go from here (the school) to there (the park)
