gettin'
In the process
Gettin' is an informal spelling of getting, representing the dropped final g common in casual speech: I'm gettin' too old for this, We're gettin' out of here.
The apostrophe marks the missing letter.
The spelling appears in dialogue, song lyrics, and informal writing to convey a relaxed or vernacular tone.
