hi do you know the difference between hiking hitchhiking thumbing a lift and
trekking this is Susan Brodar from speak languages and travel the world here to
help you improve your English with minimal effort
a maximum benefit so there are words like hiking and hitchhiking which could
be confused today as you can see I'm hiking hiking is usually walking a
certain distance maybe half day all day in the mountains in the countryside in
this case I'm up on the Teide volcano and it just means enjoying a pleasant
walk which is usually quite long hitchhiking is something very different
it's when you take a holiday and you don't rely on public transport you don't
rely on your own car but you rely on other people and you stop cars and ask
if they can give you a lift that's hitchhiking and most hitchhikers
lift up their thumb like this as if to say I need a lift
it's a little bit dangerous nowadays it was better in the past so fewer people
go hitchhiking famill IFFT could be hitchhiking but it's usually just
something shorter like oh I missed the last bus home maybe I can thumb a lift
maybe I can stop a car lifting up my thumb and ask them if they can give me a
lift home otherwise it's a long walk it's not a proper holiday let's say so
that's hitchhiking instead and hitchhiking and thumbing a lift sorry
instead trekking trekking is also a kind of holiday a bit like hiking but it's
usually much much longer you can hike and leap out but trekking is usually a
series of nights out you might be sleeping out on the mountain or sleeping
out in the countryside that's what we refer to as
trekking so if you've been hiking trekking hitchhiking or if you have a
thumb the lift let us know in the comments below and we can hear yes your
opinion on how it went and that's all for today bye see you in the next video
