To get up to something means becoming involved in something, usually mischief.
Example sentences:
- What shenanigans have you girls been getting up to the past week?
- Where is Jack? I have a feeling that he is not going to get up to anything good.
- Don't lie to me. You and your friend got up to something last night, didn't you.
Also remember the phrasal verb put somebody up to something that we discussed earlier. That means persuading somebody to do something bad or stupid.
That's also new one. It's different than being up to something? Guess it is..
Not much.
So it's the same which one to use?
The difference, I guess, is the same as that of "get" and "be".
Ok, cool! ^^
haha @markkujantunen what you got up to looking for that image :D
It's a great picture, isn't it. :)
It's so difficult to find a picture that is not copyrighted but helps convey the message. That one was perfect.
I used pexels or configure google to search no copyright imagen only, in Google Advanced Image Search and search only free to used, shared, modify and even commercially imagen
I uses the Google search filter to find non-copyrighted pictures, too. But that causes the probability of finding a suitable picture to go down.
I am amazed what those friends got up to yesterday?
