Dear Torsten,
I just did an English test, and there is a sentence : If your train arrive, I'll fetch you from the station. I don't understand the phrasal fetch someone from. Can you explain this. Thank you. Have a good day.
Thy

Hi Thy,

Please read this: What does 'fetch' mean?

As you can see, the sentence reads 'When you train arrives....'

Just now I was doing some english tests from the website and found out some doubts from the questions, can anyone able to help me answer these, please? Thanks.

1. When your train arrives, I will fetch you from the station.
What does 'fetch' mean from the sentense? Does it mean: I will walk with you from the station to where the train stops when it arrives.

2. When you first meet someone, you usually shake them by the hand.
Does 'by' mean in the sentense is same as through?
Why I can't use with?

Can I use : you usually make handshaking.
