Also spelled getareuda, gettaruda

copy along; or pour a drink

Two different verbs share this spelling. Mostly it is follow or imitate — 따라 하다 'copy what someone does', 따라 부르다 'sing along' — with -게 saying how: 뒤늦게 따라 하다가 'copying it far too late', 나도 모르게 따라하게 됐던 'found myself copying it without realising'. But two lines are the other 따르다, pouring a drink: 물을 이렇게 따라줘요 'pour the water like this', 맛있게 따라 드릴게요 'I'll pour you a nice one'. Only the context separates them.
