LEAVE OR LET
|
Hello dear friends,
I need your help. I want to write a sentence on a classroom poster and I don�t know if I have to write:
LEAVE your imagination fly
or
LET your imagination fly.
Are both fine or LEAVE is not correct...?
Thanks a lot |

leave is a verb implying movement, meaning to go away, to depart. so I �m pretty sure the correct option here is "let" . Hugs.

Hello,
Let is the correct answer here. You can also replace FLY into GO. |

Here in the US, there are some people (mostly older) who use "leave" to mean "allow" (let). It has always been incorrect. "Let" is the correct word here.
