Is it right to grammar rules "you go get it?" Thu Mar 15, 2007 19:38 pm  Is it right to grammar rules "you go get it?"
 

Sorry but I'm too dull to understand it -"you go get it".

Shouldn't it express adding "to" in mid on sentence? as like..
"you go to get it" OR! "you go getting it".

How would I understand this?
Please tell me about it.
Many thanks in advance.

Go/come + bare infinitive is acceptable in informal American English; actually, 'and', not 'to', has been dropped, Sean:

Go (and) get me a sandwich, please.
Come (and) make me a sandwich, please

(Mr?),Mister Micawber.

I appreciate that you advised on my non-sensable question.
In korean also, One would use to drop the words in some case when they thought to need.
It would be very helpful on me.

Thank you very much.
