get vs become

Hi from Germany

I'm a little bit uncertain about "get" and "become"

Would you write:
1. Birthdays get better and better the older you get
or
... the older you become.

Thanks in advance

  • I would say...the older you are :)
  • I would say "... the older you get".

    The verb "to get" has  two main meanings:

    1) to have, to receive, to obtain

    2) to become (especially in connection with adjectives)

    I hope this will help you.

    Bye,

    Marco
