Do you know how to translate the word ‘get’ into Spanish? This small word can be translated in many different ways, making it a big challenge for learners of Spanish.

That’s why in this episode Pablo shows you how to think when translating ‘to get’, replacing it with clearer alternatives like conseguir (to achieve), recibir (to receive), or specific verbs for phrasal verbs such as levantarse (to get up) and bajar de (to get off).
