1/21 Commute

DIALOG>> How do you commute to work?

How do you commute to work?

I mostly drive my own car.

There's one day of the week I can't drive my car.

I take public transportation that day.


RESPONSE>> Talk about how you get to work.

I can either take the bus or the subway there.
ex> You can either take the freeway or the expressway.

If the traffic is bad such as on Mondays, it takes a little longer than that.
ex> The traffic is always bad on this road.

There's a bus stop just five minutes away from where I live.
ex> There's a convenience store just five minutes away from here.

The only problem is that the bus in the mornings is packed with people.
ex> The subways are packed with people at this time.

It can be a challenge to get on it sometimes.

If I feel like getting some exercise, I head out 10 minutes early and walk to the station.
* head out: 나가다, 출발하다.
ex> I'm going to head out in five minutes.

I have to go roughly 15 stations altogether and transfer once in the middle.
ex> Get off at this stop and transfer to bus number 150.
