Phrasal verb: Get through #1 (permalink) Sun Apr 13, 2008 7:15 am   Phrasal verb: Get through
 

Hi,

In the following sentences 'get through' means finish.

Should I use 'with' after 'get through' to comelete the sense?

See examples:

1. Did you get through your homework?
OR
Did you get through with your homework?

2. I have not managed to get through it all today.
OR
I have not managed to get through with it all today.

Kindly put some light on it.
