CARRY OUT: meaning and examples
Good morning,
Today's expression is:
to carry something out
It means: to do something that you have organised, planned or promised.
It also means: to do something that you have been told to do, like following instructions or an order.
Example 1
Karl: Mr. Simpson, I haven't been able to
carry out your orders to send the information via e-mail to our customers. I'm afraid the Internet connection is not working at the moment.
Mr. Simpson: What? Well, have you talked to the computer department? If they can't fix the problem right away, send the information by regular post.
Example 2
As a salesperson, I have to
carry out visits to my clients. I try to see each one at least once a month.
Example 3
We have three weeks to
carry out the project. Let's sit down now and plan how we are going to do it. It's due on March 16th.
