Grammar detail: verb て form + くれる
My current mastery of this grammar:
verb て form
+ くれる
means receive (as used by the person doing the receiving)
Japanese is very precise about allocating credit for actions performed, so when you describe something that somebody has done that could be construed as being done for your benefit, you would use てくれる.
てくれる is also commonly used to describe a second or third person point of view when the speaker describes something that is done for somebody by another.
It is also used when we describe an abstract noun doing something for us.
This form is also a useful way of implying that somebody has said something for your benefit.
The humble form of くれる (used when the person doing the favor is senior) is くださる (from which ください is derived).
See also:
- verb て form + あげる - do for somebody, give
- verb て form + もらう - to have someone do something
- あげる, くれる, もらう - giving and receiving
