carry, bear, bring, convey, take, transport的区别

这些动词都很相似，指物体或人空间上的移动。Carry和Bear都暗指承载负重，但是两个单词中只有carry暗含从一个地方到另一地的移动。一个猴子可以bear一件大的重物，但只能静止站着，但是carrying这件重物就表示将它移动到某个地方： The bridge was designed to bear the heaviest load any train could carry. 当然，Bear也可以指移动，但是暗含举止和行为方式的高贵：the royal carriage bearing the queen and her consort. 另一方面，Carry并不一定强调被移动物体的沉重性：carrying only a samll handbag and a pair of gloves. Bear 还有carry 没有的含义，那就是遭受折磨：He bore with him all his life the memory of her painful death.

Transport 更加正式，且更专业，正常情况仅表示将货物或人当做货进行运输：helicopters to transport troops to the battlefield. Transport 比carry 更加强调向着目标或目的地移动。与bear所暗含的行为方式相比较，transport 强调的仅仅是作为一个物流问题的实际装运事件。

Bring和take是这些词中间最不正式的词；bring 指向着讲话人运动，而take指向着远离讲话人运动。两者在运用是都是命令的语气：take away this ghastly veal vutlet and bring me my dessert. 在实际使用中，to和from的区别并不明显，两者都可以表示相伴随的或有目标的运动，而不仅仅是一件事物carry了另一件事物。Take me to the nearest hospital; The ski lift will bring you within a few feet of the wountaintop.

Convey在莎士比亚的年代是bring和take 的简单同义词。从这个意义上说，它现在的使用极为正式，主要用于指通过中间媒介传递一个讯息。Convey my best wishes to the rest of your family; The ambassador personally conveyed the president's message to the prime minister. Convey 不一定指实际的运动。If my letter conveyed the impression that i was indifferent, please forgive me; His tone conveyed his real feelings more accurately than his words.

反义词：leave
