Oh world of pain - who else is plagued by "can I get" ?
Or "I get to do this or that" from their kids?
"I might get an opportunity" when what they mean is " I may have an opportunity"?
How has the word "get" morphed within the language so quickly?
What happened to I have an opportunity?
What has happened to I can do this or I could do that?
Anyone else angry about "get" ?
Because I'm getting pretty pissed off...
