    In Lesson 7, Tiffany says “我要抓你wǒ yào zhuā nǐ” to Sandra.

    So 抓 here, means to arrest.

     

    Besides, 抓 has many other meanings. See the following examples:

    seize the opportunity ———- 抓住机会zhuā zhù jī huì

    grab her hand ———- 抓住她的手zhuā tā de shǒu

    take his arm ———- 抓住他的胳膊zhuā zhù tā de gē no

    What does that even mean? Polysemous?
