TRAVEL vs. TRIP

Good morning / afternoon / everning everyone. Welcome back to the Daily Vitamin. I hope you are having a great day!

Today we are looking at a very common error amongst English students; the confusion between travel (verb) and trip (noun). The important difference is that one is a verb and the other is a noun. Consider the examples below.

Example 1
Speaker 1: Tomorrow I'm travelling to Madrid.
Speaker 2: Okay. Have a nice trip.

Example 2
That was the worst trip I have ever taken.

INCORRECT: ***That was the worst travel I have ever taken.***
