what’s the difference between make time to do sth. and take time to do sth.?
‘Make time for/to X’ = re-arrange one’s schedule to accommodate X activity.
‘Take time for/to X’ = stop doing something else and do X.
tks，Mr Micawber. will you please give me an example to illustrate it?
I need to make time to meet with you next week. There are a few things I can probably push back.
We value our workers but insist that they take time for their families. It makes them happier, which ultimately benefits us as well.
“Take time” alternative: It takes time to build strong relationships. - To require considerable time.
She took little time getting dressed. - To use the amount or type of time specified.
IMO, in a sense,
If you think you have no time, you make time out of the “no time”: you make efforts to squeeze out time.
If you think you still have some time, you take time: you take the whole or part of the “some time” to spend.
Good!
