Some strange things to come down with (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

get

'come down with' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'some strange things to' is the wordplay.
'some' indicates a hidden word (some parts of the word are used).
'GET' can be found hidden inside 'strange things to'.

(Other definitions for get that I've seen before include "Procure from vegetables" , "Acquire" , "Escape" , "Procure or secure" , "Receive; obtain" .)
