Metropolitana - Grammatica
In this lesson we will look at some phrasal verbs using the verb get.
Get can have many meanings in English, but when we add a preposition or an adverb to it, it becomes a phrasal verb, and it has even more meanings.
Get on means to enter a bus, train or tram.
For example; Get on the Tube at Piccadilly Circus.
Get off means to depart a bus, train or tram.
For example; Get off the Tube at Convent Garden.
Get in, or get into, however, means to enter a car.
For example; Get in the car it is pouring with rain.
Get out of means to depart a car.
For example; Get out of the car before the traffic lights change to green again.
Get around means to move or travel from place to place.
For example; The Tube is the best way to get around London.

Metropolitana - Inglese Britannico e Americano
La lezione di oggi ti aiuterà a comprendere la differenza tra alcune parole in inglese britannico e americano.
In the UK, the underground rail system is called the Underground.
The Underground system in London is called the Tube, because of the shape of trains and tunnels.
In the USA, the underground rail system is called the subway, but in Washington D.C. it is called The Metro.
The British also use the word Metro to refer to the underground system in other cities in Europe.
In British English, a subway (or underpass) is a passage under a road that pedestrians use to go from one side to the other.
The same thing in America is called underground pedestrian passageway.
