ghost3040: Discipline? They lost 2 matches in the group stage. Nothing to fear about SA. They only managed to beat Egypt because of one single mistake that cost them dearly. Go and watch the match statistics |

You are "On the bus" when the vehicle is in motion, that is, moving.
While, you are "In the bus" when the bus is not in motion. |

On the bus - Motion In the bus - Static |

"On the bus" means you're in transit in a bus while "in the bus" means you're in the bus and not transiting |

Everybody here na olodo. The correct one is "on the bus". Buses were originally platforms that industrial workers took to and from work. So even though a bus is covered,it's still considered a flat platform. So to all the olodos "on the bus". 1 Like |

Lmaoooo. I use both interchangeably. English is such a complicated and confused language. If not that colonialist forced it on the world it would have gone extinct. Even native English speakers struggle to get it right. Our traditional languages are even better at describing actual situations than English. 1 Like |

camoncx2019: When the bus is stationary you say 'get on the bus' to people boarding or 'I'm getting on the bus' if you are the one boarding. When in motion you are in the bus. |

In the bus is very wrong On the bus is the right words to use. A bus has space and passengers can move around. When there is space to move around, we use "on" on the bus, on the train, on a boat,on a plane ....e.t.c. ( when it comes to transportation) I am on a boat I am on a bus On a plane ( a plane has space and there is movement) We us "in" if the space is confined. there is no movement, you enter and come off. In a car, In a canoe,in a yatch, ... e.t.c. I am in the car I am in a canoe. The only time you use "in the bus" is when you left an object or material( now it's not about transportation but location) I left my bag in the bus. The logic has to do with the space ( if the person is free to move or not) In a private car, like toyota muscle , you can't walk inside the car) 4 Likes 1 Share |
