Abstract

Considering a great number of expressions with “get”, teachers do not have to avoid them while teaching English Language. In teaching process, however the mere attention of expressions with “get” is enough to incite confusion among the students. While teaching students, they do not always understand different patterns and meanings of the verb “get” and therefore they are not accessible to them. The scope of the article is to investigate expressions with verb “get” (get combined with different parts of speech, collocations, phrasal verbs, etc.) in order to help teachers better clarify the problematic topic, identify such expressions, understand, learn and use them more effectively in teaching process.
