What does "coger" mean in English?

  1. To catch

  2. To scare

  3. To look for

  4. To assure

The correct answer is: To catch

The verb "coger" primarily means "to catch" in English. It is commonly used in various contexts, such as catching a bus, catching an object, or grasping something physically. In the realm of everyday Spanish conversation, you might hear someone say "Voy a coger el autobús," which translates to "I am going to catch the bus." The other meanings provided in the options do not align with the standard usage of "coger." While the verb "asustar" means "to scare," "buscar" translates to "to look for," and "asegurar" corresponds to "to assure," these do not relate to the meaning of "coger." Thus, understanding the primary definition allows learners to use "coger" accurately in conversations and contexts relevant to its meaning.
