This is an awesome picture. |
English uses the verb "be", "stay" and
"get" to make some subtle, but important distinctions. In today's lesson we are going to use the
idea of "in shape".
be in shape = be fit
get in shape = work hard, hoping to be fit, or becoming fit
stay in shape = maintain your fitness level.
John is in shape.
John is in better shape than Adam.
Adam is in horrible shape.
Pamela is going to the gym 6 times a week. She wants to get in shape for the summer.
Manuel has taken up jogging to stay in shape.
