Hello ,guys.I got confused about this sentence:'Often you can't get your hands on the real ones in the market'.What does it mean?
Thank you.
Hi sprint.
The sentence is telling you that sometimes the items you find in the market are fakes.
For example, you may have gone to the market/store to look for a particular brand of clothing. When you get there, the only ones you can find look like the real ones, but they are fakes. The real ones are hard to find.
'Get your hands' on is a way of saying 'find'.
