Being very ambitious, Kevin likes to take on chanllenges.


In our mother tongue, we'd say 'accept challenges" but I wonder if this sounds right to you. Thanks.

I think you can replace "take on" with "accept".

I think you can replace "take on" with "accept".

I wonder, dear dn88, it seems to me that "take on" is much more aggressive (in meaning) than "accept"...... maybe "face"
What do you think?

Thanks, dn88 and nichec.
I concur that "face" is a good substitue.

Yeah, "face" seems much better, dear nichec.
