Involve vs get involved #1 (permalink) Sat Aug 15, 2009 7:15 am   Involve vs get involved
 

One more confusing word, as in my previous question I have some difficulties in how these different usage could be placed in which sentences.

Maybe "get" plays the key role in both situations and more as in many other phrases. Again, I am asking you, the master, to explain with examples.

Best regards
Emir

Good morning Emir.

You can involve another in your affairs or in a situation.

You can become involved in such a situation.

To become involved.

"You are not involved in this argument/discussion."

"Come away Emir, don't involve yourself in their fight."

"Come away Emir, don't get involved with those people."
