put on/get on

Is there a subtle difference in meaning between “1” and “2”?

  1. Put your coat on. It’s cold outside.
  2. Get your coat on. It’s cold outside.

What is right to say?

Not only I but also he likes mangoes. or
Not only I but he also likes mangoes.

Please tell me which one is right grammatically, thanks you

Neither one has any glaring grammar errors, but neither one expresses the thought well. What’s wrong with saying “I like mangoes. He does, too.”

In using the word “mango”, you should be aware that some people refer to green bell peppers as mangoes. I’ve heard that less in recent years, since the mango fruit has become available in stores, but it was very common in the 1959s and 1960s.

What does this 1959s mean? Are the months of the year intended?

Both are possible. The difference, in my view, could be:

  1. Wear the coat. (It’s already there)
  2. Bring the coat and wear it. (It’s to be fetched)

Ok thanks :slight_smile:

It’s sorta like the 1950s, only typed in a dark room by a guy who is developing cataracts. I catch most of my typos with spell-check, but that one slipped through.
