New expressions and Vocabulary!

Get in

Get in is a phrasal verb. Phrasal verbs are structures that usually use a verb and a preposition. Adding the preposition changes the meaning of the verb.

Get in has a few different meanings. It can mean to go inside of a place, or to arrive somewhere.

I’m just getting in for the night.

Get in the car, we’re going shopping!

Don’t you?

That’s an example of tag questions. Tag questions are “expressions”, added to the end of a sentence, to confirm information. They can be formed using any verb tense and any auxiliary. If the sentence is in the affirmative, the tag question will be in the negative, and the same goes the other way around.

You are a teacher, aren’t you?

James is charming, isn’t he?

Sonia doesn’t eat meat, does she?
