Achieve or Get

[Leandro Müller]

Hi everyone.

I'm trying to understand what is differences of achieve and get because in my language they have same mean :roll:.
example:

Next month I'll achieve/get my goals.
I achieved/got to buy a new car.
I achieved to accomplish my dream.

Thanks. :up:

They rarely mean the same in English.

Your sentences are incorrect.

It is possible to say 'I achieved/got a grade A in advanced geography'.

These words have different meanings in my language (Ukrainian), and I think the difference is the same as in English. If I translate them back to English, I get the following variants:

Achieve: achieve, reach, acquire, win;

Get: get, receive.

Hope this can somehow help you to understand the difference.

Not a teacher.

I think Next month I'll achieve my goals is OK. I got to buy a new car could work,but with a different meaning- I had the opportunity/managed to buy one.
