1 Correct: This sentence is correct. We can say both 'Take a seat' and 'Have a seat'. Both expressions are invitations to sit down, on a chair or sofa for example.
1 Incorrect: This sentence is not incorrect.
2 Correct: This sentence is correct. In expressions such as 'have a good time' or 'have a good trip', 'Have' is used in the sense of 'to pass' or 'to spend'.
2 Incorrect: This sentence is not incorrect. 'Take' cannot be used in this sentence.
3 Incorrect: 'Have' cannot be used in the same sense as 'take' in this example. The correct sentence should be: 'Can you take this envelope to the post office?'. It is possible to use 'have' in imperative constructions such as: 'Have those reports on my desk by 4.00 PM please'.
3 Correct: This sentence is not correct.

Fill in the blanks in the text using either have or take. Don't forget to conjugate the verbs properly!

Susie: Hello, Luna. You smell very nice today.
Luna: This morning I bathed in rose oil.
Susie: Wow! I wish I had 1 some of that.
Luna: I have 2 another bottle on me, if you would like it.
Susie: Really!? That would be great. I can take 3 it with me to the Alps, when I take 4 my vacation.
1 had: In this construction we are trying to express possession (Susie wishes she 'had' some rose oil), and so 'had' is the best choice here.
2 have: Luna is explaining that she possesses another bottle of perfume. Because she is expressing possession, 'have' is the best choice here.
3 take: Because Susie is speaking about 'bringing' something from one place to another, we must use 'take' here.
4 take: 'To take a vacation' is synonymous with 'to go on vacation' and expresses the physical act of leaving. Both choices (have and take) are acceptable in this case.
Übung 3
Philip: Hey, Kevin! Did you a good weekend?
Kevin: It was alright. I went to a nice restaurant.
Philip: What did you eat?
Kevin: I the chicken.
Philip: Well, I need to this report to Bruno. See you later.
Philip: Hey, Kevin! Did you have 1 a good weekend?
Kevin: It was alright. I went to a nice restaurant.
Philip: What did you eat?
Kevin: I had 2 the chicken.
Philip: Well, I need to take 3 this report to Bruno. See you later.
1 have: 'Did you have a good weekend?' is an idiom in English meaning: 'Did you enjoy your weekend?' This is the best choice here.
1 take: Because a weekend cannot be picked up and carried around, we cannot use 'take' here.
2 had: When talking about a meal, we can say 'I had the chicken', which means, 'I ate the chicken'. This is the best choice here.
2 took: Unless Kevin literally 'carried' the chicken home with him, we cannot use 'take' here.
3 take: Because Philip is 'carrying' the report to Bruno, we use 'take' here.
3 have: 'Have' does not make sense here. We could say, however: 'I need to have this report to Bruno by two-thirty', meaning: 'I need to 'deliver' this report by two-thirty'.

2 enjoy: "To have a good time" with someone, and "to enjoy one's time" with someone both share the same meaning. Both refer to a pleasant or fun experience shared with someone else. For example: "-Did you have a good time last night? -Yes, I really enjoyed our time together".
