NOT llevarmos -I think it isnt a word.
DONT say llevamos… That would mean We take…

Tener=To have (tengo, tenga ten”ay”mos
Tomar means take usually in the following senses:
MOSTLY means to consume, drink, ansorb etc
Think of eating a toe with sea water(mar) on it OR drinking a mix or toe and sea water OR absobing toe and sea water into you like a sinking boat would:
