I.up [ʌp] ADJ Up appears frequently in English as the second element of phrasal verbs (get up, pick up etc.). For translations, consult the appropriate verb entry (get, pick etc.).

1. up (high):

2. up (in direction):

XIV.up <Part pres upping; Pret imperf, Part perf upped> [ʌp] VERBO trans (increase)

XV.up <Part pres upping; Pret imperf, Part perf upped> [ʌp] VERBO intr coloq

Veja também: pick over, pick, get

I.pick over VERBO [Brit pɪk -, americ pɪk -] (pick [sth] over, pick over [sth])

2. pick (poke) → pick at

I.get <Part pres getting, prét got, Part perf got, gotten americ> [ɡet] VERBO trans This much-used verb has no multi-purpose equivalent in French and therefore is very often translated by choosing a synonym: to get lunch = to prepare lunch = préparer le déjeuner.
get is used in many idiomatic expressions (to get something off one's chest etc.) and translations will be found in the appropriate entry (chest etc.). This is also true of offensive comments (get stuffed etc.) where the appropriate entry would be stuff.
Remember that when get is used to express the idea that a job is done not by you but by somebody else (to get a room painted etc.) faire is used in French followed by an infinitive (faire repeindre une pièce etc.).
When get has the meaning of become and is followed by an adjective (to get rich/drunk etc.) devenir is sometimes useful but check the appropriate entry (rich, drunk etc.) as a single verb often suffices (s'enrichir, s'enivrer etc.).
For examples and further uses of get see the entry below.

1. get (receive):

get TV, RÁDIO channel, programme

II.get <Part pres getting, prét got, Part perf got, gotten americ> [ɡet] VERBO intr

get along with you coloq!
get away with you coloq!
