Bring something (with me)

1. Everyday brings its bread with it.

2. I brought a piece of cake with me.

I don`t know how "with it" in 1 and "with me" in 2 make difference with sentences without them.

ex) 1. Everyday brings its bread. vs Everyday brings its bread with it.

2. I brought a piece of cake. vs I brought a piece of cake with me.

And if there`s other verbs used like that.. I want to know^^

Do you mean other verbs that can have "with it/me/etc." tacked on without really changing the meaning? In some contexts, "take" works the same way; for example, "take this" versus "take t

AnonymousThen what are there other verbs that can have "with it/me/etc." tacked on with really changing the meaning?
At the moment I can't think of any except "bring" and "take". It's a difficult question to answer definitively: there are thousands and thousands of verbs in English.
