I wanted to translate, but I can't. What exactly does "to fetch" mean in this sentence?

FeuDRenais FeuDRenais September 7, 2010 September 7, 2010 at 7:54:47 PM UTC flag Report link Permalink

to get (to go over, pick up, and bring back over)

> You can put the word "got" instead of "fetched" into this sentence for the same meaning.

Yes. Although, IMO, "fetch" evokes a stronger image of the shopkeeper actually going over and getting the suit.
