I.get <part prés getting, prét got, part passé got, gotten Am>[ɡet]CZ.cz. przech.This much-used verb has no multi-purpose equivalent in French and therefore is very often translated by choosing a synonym: to get lunch = to prepare lunch = préparer le déjeuner. get is used in many idiomatic expressions (to get something off one's chest etc.) and translations will be found in the appropriate entry (chest etc.). This is also true of offensive comments (get stuffed etc.) where the appropriate entry would be stuff. Remember that when get is used to express the idea that a job is done not by you but by somebody else (to get a room painted etc.) faire is used in French followed by an infinitive (faire repeindre une pièce etc.). When get has the meaning of become and is followed by an adjective (to get rich/drunk etc.) devenir is sometimes useful but check the appropriate entry (rich, drunk etc.) as a single verb often suffices (s'enrichir, s'enivrer etc.). For examples and further uses of get see the entry below.
into [Brit ˈɪntʊ, ˈɪntə, Am ˈɪntu, ˈɪn(t)ə]PRZYIM.Into is used after certain nouns and verbs in English (way into, change into, stray into etc.). For translations, consult the appropriate noun or verb entry (way, change, stray etc.). into is used in the structure verb + sb + into + doing (to bully sb into doing, to fool sb into doing). For translations of these structures see the appropriate verb entry (bully, fool etc.). For translations of expressions like get into trouble, go into detail, get into debt etc. you should consult the appropriate noun entry (trouble, detail, debt etc.).
