Let's get to work learning about get in phrasal verbs.

This is the sneaky part of English—we may not have lots of words but those words are combined and then change meanings. With some work and patience, you'll end up nailing phrasal verbs, too.

🟡 Get at: criticize
Stop getting at me! I'm trying my best.

🟡 Get into: become involved
There's a dispute but I don't want to get into it, if I don't have to.

🟡 Get to: have the opportunity
I got to eat a lot of treats on the cruise.

🟡 Get back at: revenge
It's never a good idea to get back at someone who hurts you. Just walk away.

🟡 Get through to: succeed in contacting
I've been trying to get through to the airline for an hour now.

🟡 Get over with: finish something unpleasant
I want to get over with cleaning and relax.

🟡 Get out of: avoid responsibility
The teenager got out of emptying the dishwasher by saying that he needed to study for tomorrow's exam.

🟡 Get around to: find time
I hope you get around to fixing the IT problem since I can't do it.

The best would be if you now thought of your own sentence for each. 💬
