Today we are going to talk about this common verb in ENGLISH, which is GET!
Get is a very common verb using in espokene English! Get has many different meanings and is used in many idioms.
Do you know some meaning of get?
LET ME KNOW, before we dive into this topic!
The first use of this verb is to arrive.
It would be
1)GET+ PLACE= ARRIVE
When you are using GET with a place, it gives the similar meaning to arrive

2) GET + NOUN= RECEIVE, TAKE, OBTAIN, GET plus a noun (like an object)
We can use “get” with a noun. This basically means “take,” although a more accurate word for this would be “obtain.”
