Look after/take care of
Message from anuesther posted on 01-08-2017 at 22:00:46 (D | E | F)
Hello,
Could you help me please?
Thank you for any reply.

I believe these two phrases - 'look after' and 'take care of' have the same meaning.
But isn't there any slight difference?
I can *look after* myself
or
I can *take care of* myself

Hello everybody!
Take care of and look after are almost the same:
Take care of yourself/sb/sth: to keep yourself /sb/sth safe from injury,illness,danger,etc.
My mother took care of me when I was ill. She always takes great care of her books.

Look after sb/sth/yourself : to be responsible for or take care of sb/sth/yourself.
I want to go back to work if I can find somebody to look after the children.
I hope the examples help. Best regards

hi everybody!
"look after (someone/something)" and "take care of (someone/something)" are often interchangable but sometimes one fits the context better than the other. For instance when saying goodbye, you could say "Take care!", but you wouldn't say "Look after!" as it would seem incomplete. You would have to add "yourself" at the end
have a fun day!
