co-authors are other participants quoted. I haven't changed content of thr replies, but quoted it part by part in my replies, interspersing each reply after relevant part. Sometimes I have also changed the order of replies with my retorts, so as to prioritate logical/topical over temporal/chronological connexions. That has also involved conflating more than one message. I have also left out mere insults.

Would "Get" Get Around in a Sprachbund?
Given its versatility of metaphor, I get the impression it would.
Where does GET Come From? And how to Use it Correctly

ghedh-, ghodh-
Old Indian, Germanic languages, cognate with goods and even good.
Old Church Slavonic / Russian.
Lithuanian.
See also ghend-.
ghend- and ghed-
Greek. Albanian. Latin. Old Irish and Cymric / Breton.
Germanic. Old Church Slavonic / Russian / Czech.
So, overall,
Q-Celtic, P-Celtic, Latin, Germanic, Albanian, Greek, Baltic, Slavic, Indic.
In my project, that's* seven main groups, plus the minor group Albanian. Why is Albanian minor?** Because, on my view, it comes to us so late, after so much Sprachbund contact with at least Latin, Greek, Slavic, that we are hard set to be sure every item in it is NOT a loan.
Impressive, there are words that are represented in very much fewer groups, in Pokorny*** at least.
I'm not very far through Pokorny, in my stats search, but the roots that get 7 main groups, well, that is so far not many.
05 two main groups
11 three main groups
06 four main groups
07 five main groups
04 six main groups
01 seven main groups
01 eight main groups
01 nine main groups
01 all ten main groups
37 roots overall

° On the challenge "getta rett" = basically Norwegian "gette rett" (and I did that, except I didn't actually guess).
