For what it may be worth (which isn't very much at all)

As per Funk & Wagnalls, "Carry 1. To bear from one place to another; transport, convey". For the linguists among us, there are 21 examples of how the word may be used.

"Bear - 1. To support; hold up, 2. to carry; convey" (there are 22 additional examples)

"convey - 1. to carry from one poit to another, transport"(only 5 examples)
