What does getting revenge mean?

Answer 1

REVENGE is taking an action against someone who has insulted, affronted, or otherwise wronged you. In some cases, the wrong may be unintentional or even imaginary. In others, it could be a serious attack or injury. In any case, revenge is an extension of the instinctive reaction to physical or mental harm (e.g. kicking an inanimate object). Revenge may be taken even when it leads to unfortunate results such as escalation or violence. Getting revenge means getting back at someone. In earlier times, revenge for "an insult to one's honor" sometimes took the form of duels with swords or pistols. An extreme modern example (less honorable?) are "reprisal killings" by rival gangs or criminal groups.
