Vincent TeoMy friends told me, they won't say "taking lunch" but is "having lunch". Really?Yes. "Having lunch" is much more usual in ordinary conversation (at least in my experience).
I understand "taking lunch", but I doubt I'd ever say it*. To me it sounds upper class or old-fashioned.
* Edit: except facetiously.
