Hi, I'm Lisa.

In this video, you will learn 23 phrasal verbs with the verb to get.

This will help you understand native speakers and you'll be able to speak English with more fluency and more confidence.

English phrasal verbs can be so confusing and there are so many of them,

but they're a very important part of the English language and they're commonly used by native speakers.

Phrasal verbs are made up of two or more words and they change the meaning of the original verb.

For example, the verb to look means to see or to examine.

But when we add the preposition up, to look up, that means to search for information or to research.

Let's learn how to use some English phrasal verbs with the verb to get.

The verb to get can mean to receive or to obtain

but when it's combined with other words it can have a lot of different meanings.

For example, to get back at someone or to get back to someone or to get back with someone.

These three phrasal verbs have different meanings.

Or for example, to get away with someone is very different from to get away with something.

We will learn the meaning of these phrasal verbs plus many more.

First, let's look at the pronunciation rules to make sure you have a good accent when you're saying these phrasal verbs.

Let's look at the pronunciation of the phrasal verbs to get around and to get through.

When we have a vowel following the T, we say it like this.

Get a, get around, get around.

Some people call that sound a flat T or a fast D sound

or it may sound like an R sound of your native language.

Get around.

So when we have a T between two vowels, that T changes.

Get around.

So we say get off, get into, get away.

But when the T is followed by another consonant, The T is not pronounced that way.

In that case, we hold the T.

We do this, get, get.

Don't release your tongue.

Don't say get.

So it's not get through.

It's like this, get through.

Let's say that, get through, get through, get by.

We don't say get by.

Don't release the T.

Hold it, get by, get by, get going, let's get going, let's get going.

All right, let's get started with learning some phrasal verbs with the verb to get.

Let's learn the difference between these two phrasal verbs, to get around and to get around to it.

To get around means to move from place to place, to travel or to be able to go to different places without difficulty.

And here are some ways you can use this phrasal verb.

You can say, in my city it's easy to get around by bicycle.

Or, I usually get around by car.

We got around the country by train.

How do you get around?

In Los Angeles it's hard to get around without a car.

Or we can say something like this, my grandmother is finding it harder to get around these days.

She can't move so easily.

Or you can use it like this.

Wow, you were in New York last week and this week you're in London?

You really get around, don't you?

You move from place to place a lot.

It also has that meaning.

But how about to get around to it?

That means to finally do something that has been postponed or delayed.

To finally find time to do something, we often say to get around to it when we're talking about something that we really don't want to do,

something that we don't enjoy doing or it's difficult to do it.

For example, you can say, I need to clean my room but I just can't seem to get around to it.

Or you can say, I've been so busy

but i need to get around to booking a flight for my vacation i've got

so much to do today i don't know

when i'll get around to it let's listen to the way

some other people used it well you know i don't really feel like doing this right now

but i'll get around to it

and i just didn't get around to it till this month

because it was such an overwhelming task if you can do it tomorrow well you may not ever get around to it.

What do you need to get around to doing?

All right, let's look at the next two phrasal verbs.

Do you know the difference between these two phrasal verbs?

What's the difference between get away and get away with?

To get away means to escape or to go on vacation.

We can say, I need to get away from this city for a while.

It's so noisy and crowded.

Or we can say, let's get away for the weekend.

That means, let's take a short trip.

We can also use it as a noun.

A getaway.

We're going to stress the first word and we're going to say it as one word, getaway.

And that means a short vacation somewhere nearby, not too far away.

We can say, we had a nice two-day getaway in the mountains.

That was a very relaxing getaway.

But what about the meaning of to get away with something?

That means to avoid being caught or punished for doing something wrong.

Why practice speaking with this video?

Practicing speaking English with the video on phrasal verbs featuring "get" offers numerous benefits. As you shadow the speaker, you’ll not only enhance your vocabulary but also improve your fluency and confidence in real-life conversations. Native speakers often use phrasal verbs, and understanding their meanings and usages will allow you to connect more effectively during discussions. By engaging with the content, you can learn to navigate different contexts and respond naturally, which is crucial in everyday English.

Grammar & Expressions in Context

Let's analyze a few key structures used in the video that will aid your understanding of phrasal verbs:

Get around: This expression means to move from place to place easily. For instance, you might say, "In my city, it's easy to get around by bicycle." Using "get around" emphasizes the ability to navigate various locations smoothly.
Get back to someone: This phrase is used to indicate returning to a person for further discussion or information. For example, "I'll get back to you with the details later." Understanding this can help you maintain communication and clarity with others.
Get away with something: This means to avoid accountability for a mistake or wrongdoing. An example might be, "He always tries to get away with skipping class." This expression focuses on the notion of escaping consequences.
Get through: This phrase often refers to the act of completing a process or overcoming difficulties. For instance, "I managed to get through the tough exam." Using it in conversation reflects resilience and determination.

Common Pronunciation Traps

When shadowing the video, be mindful of certain pronunciation nuances that can trip up non-native speakers:

Get around: Notice how the "t" is pronounced like a flat "d" or an "r" sound when followed by a vowel, resulting in "get around." Practicing this will make your speech sound more fluid.
Get through: Here, it's vital to hold the "t" sound rather than releasing it. Instead of saying "get through," aim for a crisp "get through" for clarity.
Get going: Similarly, it’s important to emphasize the "t" in "get." Make sure not to release your tongue during pronunciation, as that can lead to misunderstandings.

Utilizing the shadowing technique while practicing these phrasal verbs will help you effectively imitate the sounds and rhythms of native speakers. As you hone your skills through this shadowspeaks method, you’ll become more comfortable and proficient in everyday English conversations.

שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
