In English, there’s no escaping this little verb. There are only 3 letters in “get” but it’s a very important word in English. Do you know its different meanings? What exactly do “Do you get what I mean?”, “I’ll get John to do it”, or “We got to the meeting late” mean?

Sure, in all of these sentences the key verb is “get”, but each time it has a different meaning. “But I can just replace it with an easier word like “understand”, “ask”, or “arrived”” I hear you saying already. Yes, you can, but if

My Christmas was a quiet one.  I stayed home the whole day.  No one came to visit.  All because my children were busy with their own preparation and celebration with friends and relatives.  

Am I lonely?  Am  I sad?  No.  In fact, it was a restful Christmas Day for me.  It was the first time that I had a quiet and restful Christmas day.  I spent the day watching concert on television.  I liked EWTN broadcast.  I listened with gusto to the many beautiful Christmas carols.  I spent long time watchi

Dear Captain,

Good evening! How's everything? Hmmm, do you miss me? I do miss you.

I've started a brand new life, a new life that changes my mind. I am thinking in a different way which just focuses on the present and on the positive side.

Hey, that sounds a bit odd ... English is not only English. What does that mean?

When I learnt English at school, I also learnt Latin, some French, and Latin and Greek roots. Learning Latin and Greek roots was the most useful addition to English because English isn't a pure language.
