• Structure: 持ち帰り is read as もちかえり and is a noun or connective form for taking food or another item away from the current place.
• Basic usage: Use 持ち帰りにしてもらう to request food to go and 持ち帰り、家で検討する to connect taking materials home with later review.

2. Common pitfalls and similar expressions

  • Restaurant food calls for takeout wording, while documents are physically taken home, so English varies with the object.
• Viewpoint in にしてもらう
  • 持ち帰りにしてもらう means having the restaurant prepare the remainder in takeout form for the speaker.
