My current pet peeve is my children using bring and take interchangeably, as opposed to ‘bring’ if an item is moving towards them/somewhere and ‘take’ if the item is moving away.
I have a feeling that American English uses ‘bring’ in either instance, but my children apply neither the British nor the American rules (and ideally they’d stick with our rule)!
