What does this mean? Well the first time I heard it -- didn't think much of it. I said 'what' a few times to make sure I understood appropriately. When I hear ''getting on'' I think of what most Americans think ''GETTING IT ON''. HA So I heard this phrase about 6 times today! WOW. Basically it means ''how is everything going''.
Few random things also with the language barrier:
Chat with co-worker about what is the currency code (3 letter code). She tell me ZAF. Ok no problem right -- but I couldn't understand that she was saying ''Z'' ''A'' ''F''. I said what, she repeated, I said what, she repeated again. I then apologized and said -- I really don't know what you're saying. The letter ''Z'' is pronounced ''ZED'' not ''ZEE''. WOW - that was pretty difficult to pick up on. I felt a little silly, but we laughed for about 5 minutes and the entire office knew what was going on. Brilliant.
