Nota d'usoQuando si viene colti di sorpresa dalla pioggia, in inglese si usano le espressioni “to get wet” o “to get caught in the rain”: Ho preso un po' di pioggia, I got wet (non, letteralmente, I took some rain). Se piove durante un concerto o una manifestazione in cui non ci si può riparare, si può utilizzare l'espressione “to get rained on”: Abbiamo preso la pioggia durante la partita, we got rained on during the match. Espressioni enfatiche come “to get soaked/drenched” vengono usate quando si parla di una grande quantità d'acqua: Ieri abbiamo preso tanta di quella pioggia, yesterday we got soaked.
