etw. in Betracht ziehen

to take something into consideration

Türkçe: bir şeyi göz önünde bulundurmak

etw. in Betracht nehmen etw. in Betracht ziehen

English says to take, so nehmen is the verb that comes to mind. German does not take it here. Betracht goes with ziehen, and the pairing is fixed — it is not a rule you can work out, only one you can learn.
