have gotten rid of
Dear Friends, I need your help for this sentence :
"If you just dismissed anyone who had all three (areas of detection)
you would have gotten rid of an evil person." What is meaning "have gotten" in this sentence, I have definition something as "recieved" but it some way have no sense to me. In my language it does not make sence to recieve something when you rid of it.

janajOh, yeah, super,what relieve.. thank you, great help - get rid of someone/something is the other form of gotten have rid of...connected with time, is not?.Yes,"have gotten rid of" is the present perfect of "to get rid of".It's a matter of verb tense.
