6. to sit down. For example:
Please take a seat and we’ll get started.
As soon as I took my seat, the play started.
7. to bring someone to a place. For example:

My children want me to take them to Disneyland this weekend.
8. to react to a piece of news. For example:
How did Doug take it when you told him he was fired?
Sarah didn’t take it well when I told her I wanted to break up with her.
9. to measure someone’s temperature. For example:
My mother took my temperature this morning and said that I have a fever.
The nurse will take your temperature before the doctor sees you.
10. to require time in order to accomplish something. For example:
It takes time to get over a broken heart. You’ll feel better in a few months.

So these are another five ways in which we can use this verb. I’ll continue with “take” in next week’s entry for grammatical words.
