To mean ‘become + adjective’, you can sometimes have to say ‘go + adjective’ and sometimes ‘get + adjective’. Why did

Why do I have to learn adjective by adjective to identify which verb that we collocate with during my learning?
Where of some variations of syntax will go (and not usually get ) be used before adjective in many common
expressions that refer to changes for the worse.
People want to go mad or crazy or deaf or blind, gray or bald. etc. Note that we use get, not go, with olds getting tired and ill.
What is a bad thing about this quote?
I think the choice between ‘go’ and ‘get’ to collocate with an adjective obeys two criteria:
1) whether the adjective is gradable or extreme :
you go bananas, not * get bananas because you cannot be * very bananas, only completely bananas ( extreme adjective) whereas you
get
angry, not * go angry, because you can be very angry ( gradable adjective).. but that’s not enough,
because why then would you get furious, not *
go
If a adjective does not express a quality
you can control over (e.g. not going bald), consider putting a hat on or
going crazy. If your anger is intense but it overwhelms you, and you go to the trash bin, you get furious.
If the adjective
is gradable, get ( get old/tired/ill because you can be very old/tired/ill ); if it is extreme,
go, unless it describes something you can have control over/over, in which case you still use get.
Sorry about the English translation. No grammar books to quote from, just a hunch. In fact, I don’t look
up google. And I’m not that old.
