Hello drivers, riders, and walkers,
How do you get to E-Style? For many students, the answer is either by car (車で) or by bicycle (自転車で). For some, the answer is by train (電車で) or by scooter (原付で). I have even had some students come by ferry (フェリーで). But what about those who walk to class? For them, the answer is on foot (徒歩で).
I have heard many students who walk to E-Style say that they come "by walking." Unfortunately (残念ながら), this sounds a little strange in English and is not used by native speakers.
Of course, there are other ways to answer the above question without using "by" or "on." Examples include the following:
- I drive (運転する)
- I ride my bicycle/scooter (自転車/スクーターに乗る)
- I ride/take the train/ferry (電車/フェリーに乗る)
- I walk (歩いて行く)
Regardless of how you get to E-Style, please be careful on your commute (通学).
Driving safely,
Alan
