✅  Bring is the best word to refer to delivering or conveying something to someone or somewhere (Bring my glasses here).

✅  Take is the best word to use to refer to delivering or conveying something away from someone or somewhere (Take the parcel to the post office; Take a jacket, it’s cold!).

✅  While bring and take can be opposites, they can also be synonyms—confusing!

✅  The main difference between these two words relies on perspective. Going to somewhere is also going away from somewhere else. Whether you use bring or take depends on the direction of focus (bring her the book (from me); take the book to her (away from me)).

✅  Pleasure refers to the feeling of being pleased or happy with what you’re experiencing, even if it is frivolous (The sweeping view gave me great pleasure; the guilty pleasure of reality tv).

✅  Enjoyment is the best word for the feeling of contentment or satisfied joy (the enjoyment I get from being with my grandchildren).

✅  Pleasure is the more general word of the two and is more related to the senses (The cool breeze was such a pleasure).

✅  Enjoyment refers more specifically to a sense of well-being and is more distanced from a sensory experience (The park was made for public enjoyment).

We hope you’ll find pleasure in these synonyms for enjoyment!

✅  Dream refers to a sequence of mental images that happen during sleep, usually with some sort of story—even if that story only makes sense in the dream (I had a bad dream last night).

✅  Vision refers to a similar sequence of images that is unusually clear and coherent, and usually seems supernaturally significant (He had a vision of himself defeating a dragon).

✅  Vision can imply the imaging of something that will happen in the future (I had a vision of your future marriage), and happens when awake.

✅  Dream and vision can both refer to hopes for the future (a dream of a successful career; a vision for the company’s future).
