Partake vs. intake #2 (permalink) Mon Oct 23, 2006 12:33 pm   Partake vs. intake
 

To partake here means to eat or drink.

The noun intake has several definitions: fuel intake, for example, is the quantity of fuel taken in; calorie intake, the quantity of calories taken into the body. An intake of new recruits is a group of new people taken in by an organization. The verb 'take in' is not commonly used in the sense of 'eating/drinking'.
