Llevar vs. Traer
'Llevar' means to take something away from where you are now (like 'go and carry'), while 'traer' means to bring something to where you are now (like 'come and carry').
❌ Common Pitfalls
Using the wrong verb for 'bring'
Mistake: "Usar 'llevaré' when you mean 'I will bring it here.'"
