I am a Newbie and need your help as I want to know what Segwit is?
How do I get a Segwit address.

Segwit is basically a way of sending bitcoins while using less space then "normal" transactions, by replacing/removing (mostly) signature data, thus making them cheaper.

You can download Electrum, and once launched it will prompt you to either create a "Standard" or "Segwit" wallet, choose segwit, and voila, there you have it.

Other then generating the wallet, nothing.
