Definição

To become very excited or get strong pleasure from something, usually something specific. It can refer to both strong enjoyment or sexual excitement, depending on context.

Uso & Nuances

Informal and sometimes slang; often used in contexts related to strong enjoyment or even sexual arousal. Context determines if the meaning is innocent (e.g., loving adventure sports) or more adult. Common mistakes: confusing with simply 'get off' (to leave) or using in formal settings—avoid in business, school, or with strangers.
