Carry (someone somewhere)
含义: To drive or take someone to a place; to give someone a ride.
In Southern English, 'carry' doesn't just mean to hold something in your arms — it also means to transport someone by car. 'Can you carry me to the store?' means 'Can you drive me to the store?' Non-Southerners are often confused by this usage, imagining literally being carried.
