student asking question

What does "get lost" mean? I thought it means to not know where to go, but in here it used like get out of here. Am I understanding it right?

Yes! "Get lost" in this context means the same thing as telling someone to go away, but in a rude way. Ex: I told that stranger trying to talk to me to get lost.
