“bare” vs. “bear”
Both of these words have several meanings, but “bear” is the one that means “to carry”; “bare” is normally used when referring to someone or something devoid of clothes, plants, etc.
A few examples:
Mussorgsky’s “Night on Bare Mountain” (or “Night on Bald Mountain”)
Barenaked Ladies (the rock band that composed the music for “The Big Bang Theory”)
“I can’t bear it!” (I’ve had enough!)
“Bear with me…” (Put up with me…”)
“Grin and bear it” means something very different from “grin and bare it.”
