Hi everyone!

How can I say "tirar vantagem /tirar proveito" in English?

e.g.:

- Ele tirou vantagem do fato de ser amigo do dono
- Ele ganhou porque tirou proveito da situação

It's my first topic... so... please, be patience.
Thanks!

Olá Alexander,

Tirar vantagem,proveito=To take advantage

1)He "took advantage of" the fact that he was the owner´s friend.

2)He won because he took advantage of the situation.

Best wishes!
