Down-get up

Hi,,

I have heard on CNN news: ( 10 miners down and 23 get up).

Emotion: thinking I am not sure if i heard that rightly

so what are the part of speech for --down and get up
  

Top answer

10 down and 23 to go. I think this might be what you heard. down could be considered an adjective, to go is a verb (infinitive).
