Take a train or Ride a train
You can "ride" a train, or you can "take" a train. What's the difference?
You use "ride" when you want to talk about the experience of riding, or when you want to describe something that happened while you were riding the train:
πΉI love riding the train in the middle of the day when it's not crowded.
πΉI was riding the train, and this guy next to me started telling me a story about how he had just gotten out of prison.
πΉAs I was riding the train home, I realized that I'd left my keys in the closet at work.
You use "take" when you want to talk about how you get somewhere:
πΉJust take the #3 train to 72nd Street and I'll meet you there.
πΉDo you think it'll be faster to take the train or try to catch a bus?
Is it clear?
YES - π
NO- π₯

βοΈInteresting Facts About English GrammarβοΈ
πΉβI amβ is the shortest complete sentence in the English language.
It does not have both a subject and a predicate, but it is a sentence because it expresses a complete thought, and it is grammatically correct.
πΉA pangram sentence is one that contains every letter in the language.
For example, the sentence βThe quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dogβ is a pangram.
πΉThere are βghost wordsβ that mean nothing.
The dictionary because of printing errors. The nonexistent word βdordβ appeared in the dictionary for eight years in the mid-20th century. It became known as a βghost word.β
πΉThe shortest, oldest, and most commonly used word is βI.β
Medieval manuscripts reveal that some of the oldest words in English are βI,β βwe,β βtwo,β and βthree.β This makes βIβ one of the shortest and oldest words in the English language. It is also the most commonly used word in English conversations.
πΉA new word is added to the dictionary every two hours.
Between now and your next meal, a new word will be put into the dictionary. During the course of the year, almost 4,000 new words are added! So, the next time you try to catch the attention of the dissertation committee, try adding some new words to your project.
πΉThereβs a name for words that we repeat often.
Words we always use even though they add no meaning or value to a sentence are called crutch words. For example, in the sentence βThen I was like, OMG, then like, he went there, and likeβ¦β it is pretty obvious that βlikeβ is the crutch word. βActually,β βhonestly,β and βbasicallyβ are also commonly used as crutch words.

I should have done more. I shouldnβt have wasted my time. These are regrets we are all familiar with. However, we still have precious hours remaining. Let us make the most of them. The Prophet ο·Ί said, βIndeed, deeds are only judged by their endingsβ (BukhΔrΔ«). Let us not waste these last precious moments doing Eid preparations.
