What is the difference in meaning between amener and emmener ?

Bonjour Carolyn,

In this context, they both mean 'take [sth] somewhere' / 'to transport'. However, 'amener [qqn/qch]' tends to mean 'to bring' whilst 'emmener [qqn/qqch]' tends to mean 'to take'. 

I hope this is helpful.

Bonne journée !
