'I get very tired. '

Use the verb 'get' in any phrase or sentence you can think of.

My English teacher wouldn't allow us to use the verb 'to get' in any shape or form.
I never understood why.

I was horrified to hear my very own voice say, " Can I get an Americano please" the other day.

I hate that modern phrase "can I get...". NO! It's please may I have...

One of my English teaches always frowned on the use of the word "get" too.

It is an irregular verb, like be or have.

I confess I stole this sentence grin

😁

I got told off by my primary school teacher for using the word got.

Why have a word if you don't get to use it?
