Laurenmichelle  +  411026 Wed, 29 Aug 07 11:36 AM Hi, Am new to London and a lot of Londoners use the expression "Get in!" Does anyone know what this means when they use it? Is it a negative or positive expression? How would you put it in other words for a non-Londoner? Thanks Lauren Laurenmichelle Joined on Wed, Aug 29 2007 New Member 02 Negatives

	Laurenmichelle  +  412027 Fri, 31 Aug 07 10:25 AM No. I do undertsnad the correct grammatical usage of the phrase 'get in' as in, as you said- 'get in the bus.' The expression 'get in!' I hear is used as slang, as a colloquialism, as a reply to something someone has said, or to something they are doing. I hope someone can resolve it for me, Thanks very much indeed, Lauren Laurenmichelle Colloquialisms

	nona the brit  +  412079 Fri, 31 Aug 07 12:50 PM I wonder if you are hearing it correctly as I can't think of any use of  'get in' as slang (and I live near London). Can you give us an example of what it might be replying to or detail of when you have heard it? nona the brit Joined on Wed, Sep 22 2004 England Veteran Member 11,713 The name says it all.
