GET IN
we use 'get in' for
Car's, Van's, Taxis
This are small vehicles which are usually closed and
can carry very less number of people around
GET ON
we use 'get on' for
Bike, motorcycles, Bus, airplane, boat
a) When you get on a top of something
you can say get on the Bike, motorcycles
and
b) When it is big vehicle that carries a large number of people on it and there is a space to roam around ....
you can say get on Bus, airplane, boat
For small boats you can say get in the boat as well
Now lets understand it with few examples
let's assume
You and your friend are waiting for the cab......and taxi arrives
what will you say
Get in the car before we get late.
or
Get on the car before we get late.
Get in is the correct way to say as the car is a small vehicle and can carry few people
.
.
let's assume
You and your friend are on a vacation and you decide to go for Jet skiing
What will You say
Come on get on it will be fun.
or
Come on get in It will be fun.
"Come on get on it will be fun"
is the correct way to say as you are getting on top of it
.
.
so now you are going to enter the bus and you receive a call what will u say
Hello! give me a minute i'll get on the bus and call you back
.
.
While indicating the location we follow the same rule.
I'm on the Bus/train/ Airplane
and
I'm in the car/taxi/van
.
.
We say get off in opposite of get on and
get out is the opposite of Get in
So this is my stop, I will get off here
(Here the person is in Bus)
.
.
Please get out of my car
(Here the person is in the car)
.
.
James reached his destination(finished his Journey) on the bus now he need to _________ the bus.
A) getoff B) get out C)take off
(Comment below with your answer)
So it will be
Get in ....car/bus vans/lorries/small boats/trucks
and
Get on ....Bus/airplane/boat/trucks/bike/cycle/jet skies
let look at some more sentences
- Just get in the car
-I will get off the plane and call you back
- I just got on/boarded the Train
You need to get on the boat to start your journey
Looking at the examples I hope you understood the difference between Get in vs Get on
and Get off vs Get out
so now you can use it in your own sentences without any confusion.
It is very helpful to us
