Unit 12: We've lived........since we got married

[ابو بيشو]

احيانا نستخدم get بدلا من verb to be فى المبنى للمجهول فما الفرق
There was a fight at the party , but nobody got hurt.=nobody was hurt
Did Ann get offered the job?=was Ann offered the job?
نستخدم get فى المجهول لنقول ان شىء ما يحدث لشخص ما , غالبا الحدث لم يتم التخطيط له انه يحدث بالصدفه
The dog got run over by a car.=The dog was run over by a car.
In other situations get is not usually possible:
George is liked by everyone.(not gets liked)
Get is usd mainly in informl spoken English. You can use be in all situations.
كذلك يمكن استخدام get something done بدلا من have something done (causative)
I think you should get your hair cut.=(have your hair cut)
Have something done sometimes has a different meanig
He had all his money stolen while he was on holiday.
This doesn't mean that he arranged for somebody to steal his money.
He had all his money stolen
means onl y:All his money was stolen.
