【Continuation of the thread itself.】

When making an official speech,the Royal Diana seldom used the get and give,but when doing marital quarrel with the Prince William,she adopted both the get and give frequently,and expressed herself frankly.👸

At first,both of the give and got are strong verbs,for the get changes into got,got,and the give also turns into gave,given.The verbs changed themselves,so we call them strong verbs.


Contrary to it,some other verbs like a walk change walked, walked.The walk itself can't change. Without adding ed,the verbs can't change,so we call them weak verbs.


If fighting,the strong one wins.As a result,the strong verbs like the get and give have elbowed their ways through other verbs,and have appeared so frequently.


However,the colloquial expressions like the give and the get have hardly used in English textbook,so we the Japanese can't understand English native speakers' remarks and can't make ourselves understood in English to them forever.😥

>> 5 【If acquiring the get,we can master English conversation.】

Therefore,we'll never learn to be able to speak English which is natural and comprehensible eternally,but if searching thoroughly the expressions of the get and give,and mastering the usages,the number of our English expressions will increase extremely.We don't have to increase number of English words which we learn by heart.☺


Then we can understand wonderfully what English native speakers say,we can read bestsellers of English paperbacks more speedy,we can understand what actors or actresses say in the movies.In short,we can grasp everyday conversation which English native speakers talk.😍


It seems to be a simple theory,for the get and give have appeared frequently overwhelmingly.


【Let's use the get and give if wanting to acquire 『斬れる英語』】


The get is an energy itself which makes English move.The author of the book,『Get と Give だけで英語は通じる』said like the next.

He was relaxed in the subway,then several hulking white men got into the subway.They seemed to be in junior high school or in high school.


They made noise so much that some of them jumped on the seat with their shoes on,and continued frolicking ふざける.Their manners were so bad that the author couldn't endure it any more.💢


He yelled at them.“Get your off the seat!”They were surprised at him and lowered their feet from the seat,and suddenly became silent,so he was also astonished at them.😲


He thought like that.“Did they misunderstand me for the Mafia or gangster? No! The expression in which the get was used has great effect on them.”💡

However,an old lady next to him remonstrated with him over his behavior.She said to him.“I thought you are brave,but if going on getting angry at it,I'm afraid you'll continue to be indignant all day.”👵

The get is the base of American English,if putting it forcibly,the get is American culture itself,for taking into action positively and getting what they've wanted to win is good.They find it good.It's the American have thought.💡


Why are they greatly Influenced by the get? The origin of both the get and give was the Scandinavia language which was brought by Danish invasion into England.


While both of the words have old history,plenty of people have used the words for centuries,for the words are efficient.😃


We the humanrace are originally lazy,so we choose something comfortable,avoid something unpleasant,and select easy way.We are apt to do that.😳


As to the language,we tend to do the same thing.The English seems to become simpler.Instead of using difficult words,they have made do with the get and give in lots of cases,for the two words are efficient.👍

Besides,the expressions in which the get and give are used are simple and concise.They are so simple and concise that they get to the point.As a result,they become Englis which have great impact.😃


If wanting to acquire the English which conveys others what we think clearly, learning lots of expressions in which the get and give are used by heart is the best way.😃


The author said.“I've been engaged in English for almost 40 years,and it's my theory.”Contrary to it,I've never studied English as long as he has,so I'm not sure of what he emphasises.💦


【Grasp the rhythm of English conversation with the get and give.】


For example,There is a Japanese phrase,『出世する』.Succeed is equivalent to the Japanese phrase,but we don't have to use it.We can do with other phrase,get ahead.


There are lots of the same cases.Without using『scold』we can do with『give it to.』Without using『introduce』we can do with『give someone.』

>> 9 【Grasp the rhythm of English conversation with the get and give.】


Thus,if making full use of the get and give,English conversation becomes by far easier.In addition,if using the get and give,without using other exaggerated words like the succeed,scold,and introduce,our English will become natural.


The first thing is that the get and give make our English rhythmical,brisk,and lively.It's the best way to master English.


【Understand native speakers's reamrks really with the get and give.】


English everyday conversation in which the use and give are used will be adopted more and more in the middle of being insisted on necessity of early English education.


While the culture in the English-speaking world regards the get as good,our Japanese culture thinks of the give as good,for we make much of the virtue of modesty.


In consequence,the Japanese itself has few expressions of idea of getting something,and possibly without realizing,we may have repulsed by using the get.💦

However,lots of young Japanese people don't give their seats to the old,and go on sitting.Without giving their seats,they get their seats,but it doesn't seem they don't mind a bit.


I'm sure there seems to be more appropriate expressions,but nothing occurred to me at all,so I dare to use the get and give.I'm afraid it may have been strange English.😳

In addition,bizarre Japanese expression,『get しちゃおう』has spread over Japan.The culture of get is establishing,it's good,but keeping the balance with the give is essential.


By the way,why the Western countries have the culture of the get? Western religion is based on the people's contact with the God.


The God which is only and absolute gave the people varied things,and they obey the God's will,so they think they have rights to get what the God gave.


Thus,some relations among the people are horizontal line and the people's contract with the God is a vertical…

>> 11 【Understanding English native speakers' remarks with the get and give.】


Therefore,the horizontal line of the get which is among the people is equivalent to the vertical line of the get which is the relation between the God and human beings.

In short,Western culture of the get and other concept of the give are being balanced well.


On the other hand,we the Japanese have never been that idea.We have neither consciousness of contract with the God nor of the right which we receive from the God.


There are Japanese Gods everywhere such as in trees or flowers.We are deeply appreciated the existence of the nature itself,so we've never thought we have the right of gaining something from the God.


If I had to compare the Western culture with the Japanese one,I'd say that the next thing.When being in front of the gods,we stand on ceremony.We've never make ourselves at home.We have not only fear,but respect for the gods.It's just that we prorstrate ourselves in front of the gods.

• 共感0

>> 12 【Understanding English native speakers' remarks with the get and the give.】


In a word,we the Japanese like self-effacement 没我.We like being given from the gods.


We the Japanese have the culture of the give in which we make much of handing over something.If so,are we good at expressions in which we use the give?

We aren't.We are poor at the expressions,for plenty of the gives are used when the sentences of the get is the case of the tail wagging the dog 主客転倒.


In short,as having not any identity,we can't use both of the get and the give at our will.In addition,if we get,or we're given something concrete like money,flower,food and so on,we'll be able to recognize them well.


However they use the give even for a kiss,smile,and hug,so we're apt to be confused,so we've never been familiar with the expressions like“give him a kiss”“give him a smile”or“give him a hug”.


Besides,they use both the get and give for mental things like affection and mind,so we don't know what we'll do.

>> 13 【Understanding English native speakers'remarks whth the get and give.】


For example,we the Japanese will never say automatically like the next.


He gets his father's love.

or

Elvis got unconditional love from women.

While we the Japanese never regard spirits as substance,the Western people analyze even the spirits and place them things which they can define,so the expressions of the get and give are being created.


This book refers to culture behind the expressions of the get and give whenever there is chance,so it isn't only a cultured book of high level as the one of English conversation,but suitable for English beginners.


The remarks are of the author,『Get と Give だけで英語は通じる』

I'm sure it's meaningless if I complain before doing it actually,so I'm going to continue this thread.The author says like the next.


“Please try to look the get in a dictionary at hand.If comparing the get with other words,we find that the get has been by far given more space than others,for the get has a substantial number of expressions.

Each dictionary puts the get in order and classifies the word,but if quoting as it's,it's just unaccomplished,and I take pride in myself who has struggled with the get more than 30 years.


So I've tried my best,and I've tried to explain the get in plain words to you,coming up with various ideas to make the word easy to use,and commented on the word.

This is,as it were,my own colloquial dictionary.Roughly speaking,the get is classified as intransitive and transitive verbs,and the colloquial dictionary is composed of 29 rules.”


To my sorrow,I have no ability,so I'm forced to express as they are.It can't be helped.💦

• 共感0

>> 18 【Basic rules of 29get.】


To be exact,the 29 gets are divided into 19 which are transitive verbs 他動詞 and 10 others which are intransitive verbs 自動詞.


【29 rules of the get which are transitive verbs.】

The gets of transitive verbs are aggressive and manly,butif learning the phrase by heart like gaining something,we can use it at will.


Briefly,the word means that its subject comes close toward an object,and acquire it.As long as we keep it mind,we can grasp on the get substanitial amount.


Rule 1.『When asking to teach something,use the get.』


Example.《Can I get your name?》


If looking on the get as acquiring the information,it'll be easy to understand.


When wanting to know a telephone number,'“Can I get your telephone number?”


If wanting to know someone's size,“Can I get your size?”


If the one who offers the information is a subject,the get also changes into a give like the next.


“I can't give you my telephone number.”

Rule 2『Let's gain everything which we can do.』


Example.《You get a week a year for the first three years.》


It's means that you can gain a day off.“Getting a week's vacation with pay” or“ getting a week's paid holidays” are all right.


Simpler one,“getting a week off” is also all right.We can make ourselves understood with the still other simpler one,“Get a week.”

If wanting to acquire two days,“Can I get two days off?”If being able to gain one more day which isn't paid one,“You can get an additional day,unpaid.”


If lots of work prevents you from taking paid holidays,“I'm too busy to get it.”


Oh! A paid holiday…I have plenty of things to express on the paid holiday,but it's an another story.(;`皿´)

If being in a situation in which something bad is done as if the one in the situation were a victim,we can also express it with the get.


When getting a real telling off from someone 叱られる,we can do it with the phrase of“get it.”

You'll get it from mom.叱られるぞ。


If changing the subject into the mom,the get also changes into a give like the next.


Mom's gonna give it to you.


I was tormented by those students.


It's expressed with the give like the next.


Those students gave me a hard time.


Rule4 《Even if being unable to see it,we can use the get for it as long as we recognize it.》

As for an article,in this case,we need to add the to both of picture and message.We should learn the get the message by heart as one phrase.


Rule 5 『Instead of there's,let's use the get in relation to being time.』


Example

You've got a month to do it.


１ヶ月もあるからやれるよ。


When using the got,they add the have in front of the got like have got in daily conversations in the U.S.A. though sometimes the have seems to be omitted.


What there's time means we have time,so they use the phrase of the have got.If using the there's,I find it strange,for being time is natural.

On the other hand,I'm just an amateur,in addition,my English is saying to myself in English,so someone unpleasant criticized me for poor English speaker,but whenever I find something weird,I'll object it.

17th rule『When carrying something,we can adopt the get.』


It won't get you anywhere.

The get also means conveying something.When saying,“Get someone somewhere.”,it means carrying someone somewhere,so in brief it means approaching its destination.


On the other hand,“Not get someone anywhere．”means that the person can't be carried anywhere,so he or she won't reach its destination.


Look,this isn't getting us anywhere.

洗車してもらいなさいよ

Get your money cleaned.

汚れたお金をきれいにしてもらいなさい
Get your teeth crowned.

歯冠をかぶせてもらいなさい

Get your teeth pulled out.

悪い歯を抜いてもらいなさい

When having someone do something,we use a causative verb 使役動詞.A decade ago,we used to memorize《have,objective and past particle》.

Instead the have,we should use the get.We ought to know《get,objective and past participle》by heart.


By the way,instead the past participle,I used the present participle.What's difference between them? I'm sure I have to express the difference between them,but I can't.


To my sorrow,I don't have enough ability to do.Someone criticized my English before.He said that there were lots of misuses in my English.


I'm not sure whether or not he is right.No one is perfect.I've done my best in order to say what I thought exactly,but…


I'll never fear any mistakes

1st rule《Get to means becoming something.》


When saying,“She becomes pregnant.”I'm wondering if its way of saying is a little old-fashioned.


Usually we say“She gets pregnant.”It's originally“She gets to be pregnant.”but the part of the『to be』is omitted.


In general,when saying becoming something,let's learn it by heart as get to do something.

>> 37 【What I've thought.】


If finding it boring,I won't feel like going on expressing any more,so I'm going to stop this thread.It can't be helped.


However,it doesn't always mean that I stop studying English,for there are such a lot things to express in English that I can't give up doing.


By the way,I've wanted to express on food,but I find it impossible,for it'll definitely tempt me to drink,and to my sorrow,I won't resist the temptation.


When being in sober,if thinking of wasting time on drinking,I find it useless,but I can't overcome the temptation of drinking.I'm afraid I'm alcoholic.

Once being in alcoholic,almost all of the people will end up suffering from alcoholic forever,for even if abstaining from drinking for a long time,even little amount of beverages makes them alcoholic again.


luckily,I've never suffered from any hallucinations and never ruined my health,but I can't stop drinking.


All of you who have read my thread until now,thank you very much.So long.
