give me a drive/lift/ride home | WordReference Forums
Sep 22, 2007. #4. "Give me a drive home" sounds odd to me, while using "lift" or "ride" is fine in that sentence. As others have said, "Can I ride you home?" doesn't work, unless you're talking to a horse who can understand English!

2011年12月18日 · (Compare this to other "to give X's": "He gave a noogie to his sister." "The public gave a standing ovation to the prima donna." "The sergeant gave the go-ahead to his troops."

2018年1月9日 · Yes. But that isn't the only difference. "Driving someone home" suggests that you're going out only to take him home. Giving someone a ride can mean giving someone a lift, where you're going somewhere in any case and agree to drop someone off somewhere.

English - U.S. May 21, 2017. #5. We'd be happy to give you a ride or a lift in the U.S. I think a lift might sometimes suggest slightly less planning. If we were ccoming out of our office building together after work I might offer you a lift. If you came to me earlier in the day and asked, I might agree to give you a ride after work.

As I looked up my dictionary, it said " Do not use ride to talk about someone controlling car or other vehicle, use drive". But drive implies I have a car not motorcycle. Thanks for your help.
