How to use "Taking over" in context?
Traditionally, the phrase "taking over" has negative connotations. For example, if someone is "taking over" the conversation, it means that they're dominating the conversation and not letting anyone else have a say. In business, taking over can also refer to when a company takes over a competitor. It can be seen as an unwanted and aggressive move, designed to win over customers and resources.
However, there is a different, more positive, sense of the phrase "taking over" that can be applied in social situations.
