Hey David 大胃王, I shall provide you with an explanation about the meaning of the expression concerned. Firstly, you should know that the expression ''get stuck in'' was primarily heard in the UK, thus being considered an informal British idiom for ''begin doing something at once and with energy and/or enthusiasm''. Here are a few examples: 1) ''My mom bought me this book for my birthday, and I got stuck in straight away''. 2) ''The boss sent me the details for the new project and told me to get stuck in''. 3) ''She had no other choice but to apply for a new job and get stuck in''. In the example you provided above, the idea conveyed is that ''those teenagers who approach a troublesome situation in life and then react to it by doing something immediately and with determination, report less boredom than those who try to conceal it by getting themselves distracted with other stuff''. Hope that helps!!!

I fear Hamdy has grasped the wrong end of the stick on this one. To "get stuck in" means to take part without inhabitions or doubts about the benefits of the work, to contribute absolutely or completely. My experience is that "the more you put in the more you get out"and to get stuck in means you will pass the time well. However there is also a phrase "to get stuck on" (note on not in), which is where you are working on a problem and you cannot solve it, or it can mean you become focused on one person to the detriment of relationships with other people. "on" or "in", a tiny difference and a big change in meaning.

Hey Hamdy, May I make a correction to your post? Both idioms ''get stuck (in something)'' and ''get stuck in(to) something'' are believed to have the same meaning. In this sort, most people think they can be used interchangeably. However, I should say that they are not similar in meaning: 1) ''Get stuck (in something)'' = it is used to indicate that something or someone is unable to move forth or further. E.g.: ''I got stuck in traffic for hours yesterday afternoon''. E.g.: ''The car got stuck in the sand''. 2) ''Get stuck in(to) something'' = it is used to indicate when someone is about to start or begin doing something immediately and with enthusiasm. E.g.: ''Sorry I was late, I got stuck into this new book I'm reading''. E.g.: ''The new intern really got stuck into her work here. He is likely to be offered a permanent position''. Hope that helps!!!

When you get stuck in you commit to this job or activity 100% and get full involved

for example:I'm get struck in traffic jam u got it or what
