Dear teachers,
Please read the following sentence:
(The context: A person's father had been drinking and riding and there was an accident. Her father died two days later)
She hated what alcohol had done to her father. She needed to do something to make herself feel less powerless against the enemy that had taken her father's life.
My question is: Can I replace "taken" with "claimed"?
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Thank you in advance.
Jiang
