Do we say "I take quilt sleeping" or "I take blanket sleeping"?

 

[Piscean]

Neither.

I sleep under a quilt/a duvet/a blanket/blankets.

Neither.

I sleep under a quilt/a duvet/a blanket/blankets.

Is "take" wrong here?

 

[Piscean]

Yes.

The original is nonsensical to the point I'm not sure what you're trying to say. Are you just trying to state that you use a quilt or blanket when you sleep?

If so, then another alternative to Piscean's suggestion in post #2 would be something like "I sleep with a quilt/blanket'.

"I sleep with a quilt/blanket'.

Hi @Skrej

Can we also say "I sleep in a blanket/quilt"?

 

[Rover_KE]

No. I say I sleep under a duvet.

Hi @Skrej

Can we also say "I sleep in a blanket/quilt"?

We use "in" for things that surround us. You can say "I sleep in a sleeping bag" or "I sleep in a tent". If you wanted to use "in" with those two items, you'd have to make it clear that you're enclosing yourself in them.

I sleep wrapped up in a blanket.
I sleep with a quilt wrapped completely around me.

That way, you're expressing that you're not using the quilt/blanket in the normal way, which is to sleep under them.
