Bring/take

Are both OK: How much does she bring in a year?

VS

How much does she take in a year?

  

Top answer

I would use the phrasal verbs 'bring in' and 'take in' in those sentences. One 'in' goes with the phrasal verb; the other 'in' goes with the expression 'in a year'. How much does she bring in in a year?
