释义

用法与细微差别
Informal and common in spoken English. Usually used with 'for someone' or 'to do something' (e.g., 'make time for family', 'make time to exercise'). Not about literally creating time, but rearranging your schedule. Sometimes confused with 'take time', which can mean spending time slowly or carefully.
