Explanation
解释
'Get dressed' means to put clothes on, while 'dress up' usually means wearing some particular clothes.
“穿衣”就是把衣服穿上，而“打扮”通常意味着穿一些奇特的的衣服。
Anna: When we say 'get dressed', we are saying 'put clothes on'. For example: We get dressed every day after bathing.
Anna：我们说“穿衣”时，我们会说“把衣服穿上”，例如；我们每天洗完澡后会穿上衣服。
Abel: That's right. We do not specify the type of clothes when we use it. However we may specify the occasion. For example: "John is getting dressed for the wedding."
Abel：是的，我们使用这个词语时不会细说衣服的类型，但我们也要分场合，例如“约翰穿着婚礼服”。
Anna: When we speak of 'dressing up' it means to put on some specific clothes. For example: "He dressed up like a ghost last Halloween."
Anna：我们说“打扮”时，就意味穿上一些特殊的衣服。如，“在去年的万圣节上，他打扮的像一个鬼魂”。
Abel: Yes, if I say that someone usually dresses up, it means that this person always dresses in fancy dress. My mother always dresses up in her finest!
Abel：是的，如果我们说某些人经常打扮，这就意味着这个人总是穿着奇装异服。我母亲经常穿上她最好的衣服。
Anna: I think it's safe to say that people get dressed every day but don't dress up every day.
Anna：我认为说人们每天穿衣而不是每天打扮比较可靠。
Abel: That is true. Unless this person is my mother! But let's go now through some conversations.
Abel：是的，除非那个人是我母亲！我们现在通过一些对话开始吧。
