Examples of use word catch on Example 1A retired
four-star general ran into his
former orderly, also retired, in a
Manhattan bar and spent the rest of
the evening persuading him to come

army,"
the general said. "Nothing to it - you'll
catch on (synonyms of word catch on above) again
fast."
Next morning promptly at eight o'clock, the ex-orderly entered the
ex-general's
bedroom, pulled open the drapes, gave the general
a gentle shake,
strode around
the other side of the bed, spanked
his employer's wife on her bottom
and said,
"OK, sweetheart,
it's back to the village for you."
