@loveEng: actually , I got you is more correct , could you tell me the full sentence from which this has been taken?? It's the same difference as 알았어 and 알겠어 ㅋㅋ @magnetar1997: I'm sorry, I heard that on a TV show a couple of days ago, so I don't remember the full sentence. Anyway thank you so much! :-) @loveEng: no problem , generally in our native language we may have different expressions for it ,but in English we might need the context in from which the phrase was taken from 😃 @mel: oh really? Then, can I use any one of them? @magnetar1997: wait how is I got you more correct? They are more slang terms. I get you means I understand you. I got you means I got your back or I'll support you no matter what happens. @kev_: hmm , yeah I knew that but i thought that just grammatical I got you was correct , so I asked her the context from which it was taken 😜 @loveEng: yup ^^ it depends on your context and it's pretty hard to explain but I'll show you some examples. @tearyeyedgirl: that version of I got you probably isn't what she's talking about though. @magnetar1997:@mel:@kev_:@tearyeyedgirl: Thanks everybody!!! Your answer helped me so much. :-) @loveEng: no problem =)

@magnetar1997: wait how is I got you more correct?

"I get you" would be used to mean "I understand you," no?

"I got you" is just a really colloquial expression which is shorter for "I've got you covered."

Of course, there are probably other uses that I haven't mentioned, but I'm wondering why you downplayed "I get you."

They are more slang terms. I get you means I understand you. I got you means I got your back or I'll support you no matter what happens.

@loveEng: yup ^^ it depends on your context and it's pretty hard to explain but I'll show you some examples.

Between friends
A. Make sure you get my paper to me by the end of the day.
B. Got it.

Again between friends
A. Make sure you buy her present. It's her birthday tomorrow and you haven't done anything.
B. Alright I get it
