EXPRESSIONS WITH ‘COLD’: TAKE COLD

Welcome back and happy Friday, everyone!

Today is our last Expressions-with-the-word-COLD lesson and we are looking at the phrase TO TAKE COLD. 

Definition: To become sick with a cold. 

Example 1: We didn't wear our jackets when we played in the snow, and now my mom says we are going to take cold. 

Example 2: You'll take cold if you don't eat and sleep well at this time of the year; everyone seems to be getting sick!

We often also say TO CATCH COLD. 

Example 3: You'll catch cold if you don't wear socks. At least that's what my grandma says.

Thank you for reading. Have a great weekend!

We will see you on Monday for a new theme. Take care...and don't take cold!
