To get used to: lauseid, harjutusi, teste ja näiteid

Get used to kasutame

Kuigi be used to kirjeldab seisundit („juba millegagi harjunud“), viitab get used to protsessile, mille käigus millegagi harjutakse. Kasutame seda siis, kui miski on alguses uus või raske, kuid muutub järk-järgult tuttavamaks.

Seda konstruktsiooni saab kasutada erinevates aegades: get / gets used to, am / is / are getting used to, got used to, was / were getting used to, will get used to jne.

Lihtolevik (get / gets used to) tähendab sageli „harjub aja jooksul“ (üldine protsess), samas kui kestev olevik (am / is / are getting used to) rõhutab „harjumist sellega praegu“.

Oluline on eristada minevikus tulemust ja protsessi:
got used to = harjus sellega (tulemus),
was / were getting used to = oli sellega harjumas (protsess).

Tulevikus kasutame tavaliselt:
will get used to = harjub sellega (protsess),
will be used to = on sellega juba harjunud (seisund).

Get used to Vorm

Põhimuster väljendiga get used to on sama mis väljendiga be used to: pärast used to kasutame gerundi (tegusõna + -ing) või nimisõna. Ainus erinevus on põhiverb: kasutame get (või selle vormi) be asemel.

    Alguses oli see raske, kuid mõne aja pärast harjusin sellega.
