By extension, it means to experience (e.g., 'to have fear'), to maintain (a state or condition), to be in a particular state (e.g., 'to be sick'), or to relate or pertain to something (e.g., 'to bear relation to'). Depending on context, it can mean to be able (i.e., 'to have power/ability'), to keep or retain, to bear, to concern, or to be connected or joined with.
