Trip means to act of going to another place often for a short period of time.
Example:
We took a three day trip to the Amazon.
I went on a business trip to Brazil last month.
➽We usually use the verbs ''take'' and ''go on'' with trip.
Example:
When you take a trip, you will need a ticket. You can buy ''around trip'' ticket.
That's a ticket for going and coming back. Or you can buy
‘’one way’’ ticket. That's a ticket only for going, not for coming back.
Travel is usually used as a verb for going to another place ''in general'' not specific trips.
Example:
I really like to travel.
He travels frequently for work.
➽Travel can also be used as a noun to describe the act of
travelling ''in general''. The key words here are ''in general''. We use the word ''trip'' to talk about a specific situation of going and coming back.
Example:
Travel in that region of the country is dangerous.
➽We have two common errors with the word travel.
Don't ask ''How was your travel?'' The correct one is ''How was your trip?''
➽Never use the word ''a'' before travel.
Don't say I'm planning a travel to the USA next year.
Travel is considered as uncountable noun.
Journey refers to one piece of the process of travelling and it is usually a long distance.
Example:
The journey takes 3 hours by plane or 20 hours by bus.
He made the 200 miles
journey by bike.
➽We have a famous saying;
A journey of a thousand miles must begin with the single
step.
➽We can also use the word journey in a more metephorical way
to talk about progress in life.
Example:
My uncle is an alcoholic but he is begining the journey of
recovery.
(making progress in your life about personal development)
