As the great American writer and essayist William Burroughs said: “Living is not necessary, but traveling is necessary.” And in order for the trip to be comfortable, you need to have a minimum vocabulary for traveling, integral part which are types of transport. Today we will discuss not only “bus” in English, but we will also look at the necessary verbs of movement. By remembering this little “traveler’s dictionary”, you can easily get from point “A” to point “B”, wherever you are. Check it out

Main types of transport

IN general types transport in English sound like “means of transport”. And now in more detail about how to say “train” in English or what you can use to move around the world:

Let's remember the difference between American English (AmE) and British English (BrE). Try to focus on the option that is closer to your interlocutor.

Verbs of movement

It is certainly necessary to know the name of a particular vehicle, but you should also skillfully operate with the verbs that are combined with them. Everyone knows that " go" - in English this is to go, go, fly, and in general - the main verb of movement. When indicating the type of transport, you should use the preposition “by” after the verb: “go by ship”, “go by plane”, “go by car”, etc. The exceptions are the expressions “riding a horse” and “walking” (on your feet). The preposition “on” should be used here: “go on foot”, “go on horse”. A synonymous verb for "go" is "travel". It can also be used in these prepositional phrases.

If we are talking about “riding” - on a bicycle, horse or motorcycle, then you should use the verb “ ride": "ride a horse", "ride a bike", "ride a bicycle."

When you are driving a car, use the verb " drive": "to drive a car."

Are you planning to fly on an airplane? In English " take off"(take off) and " land"(land).

When talking about moving on water, you should use the verbs “ sail"(sail, sail) and " dock"(moor, moor).

With all types of transport you can use verbs: “ arrive"(arrive), " depart"(set off, depart), " leave"(to leave, to leave), " take"(use some type of transport, ride something). For example:

  • The train arrives at 7 p.m.- The train arrives at 7 pm.
  • The plane departed on time.- The plane took off on time.
  • We want to leave ASAP.- We want to leave as soon as possible.
  • I don’t want to go on foot, let’s take a bus instead.- I don't want to walk, let's take the bus instead.

To be more specific, use the verbs “ get on"(sit down) and " get off"(get out of): "get on the plane", "get off the bus". But in the case of a car or taxi, use the prepositions “in” and “out of” instead of “on” “off”:

  • Hurry up! Get in the car!- Quicker! Get in the car!
  • No, I don’t want to get out of the taxi.- No, I don’t want to get out of the taxi.

And finally, we would like to introduce you to the very popular expression “ take a ride”, which translates as “to go for a ride”:

  • Mr. Anderson, let's take a ride.- Mr. Anderson, let's go for a ride.

Once you've familiarized yourself with the basic vocabulary, look for other words that may be useful.

Wise words

The incorrect use of words leads to errors in the field of thought and then in practical life.

Dmitry Ivanovich Pisarev

Hello, dear readers! The modern world is unthinkable without Vehicle. Since ancient times, people have been looking for ways to make their movement faster and easier. The vehicle has gradually evolved - from horses, deer and dogs to airplanes and helicopters. Every day we come across at least one type of transportation device - bicycles, trains, buses, cars. Therefore, the topic of transport in English is very important.

Vehicle names in English

The vehicle connects peoples, countries and continents. In the USA and Great Britain, such types of transport as underground and overground trains, taxis, buses, airplanes and, of course, a personal car are very popular. They offer residents of large cities efficient, convenient and quick way movement. But vehicles such as trolleybuses and trams are rare in Western cities, mainly in museums.

In addition, unlike Russian fares, in America and Britain fares are charged by distance. Going into public transport, the passenger tells the driver the destination, and he, in turn, punches him with a ticket with the required amount. As for sea and air transport, here everything is the same as with us, you have to pay for a ticket. Only the amounts are different.

I have prepared a convenient table for you in which you will find the English translation and pronunciation of this or that word:

By the way, despite the fact that the phrase book contains a phrase with which one asks whether a passenger gets off at the next stop, in Western countries in public transport it is not customary to ask “Are you getting off at the next one?” This question will only make you look like a foreigner from Russia or the CIS countries. English speakers themselves explain it this way: “we just shove”, that is, “we push the crowd away” and maybe we say “excuse me”.

Types of vehicles in English

As you know, transport is divided into several types and subtypes:

  • Ground-underground (railway, special, personal, etc.)
  • Air (military, passenger, cargo)
  • Marine (military, passenger, cargo)

Now we can specifically study the types of vehicles themselves using a table with transcription. The translation is presented in both Russian and English language:
