意味
To use a bus as a mode of transport.
文化的背景
Buses are often called 'autobuses' or simply 'el bus'. In Madrid, the blue buses are iconic. The word 'guagua' is used instead of 'autobús'. This comes from the English 'wagon' or possibly a Caribbean indigenous word. Buses are called 'colectivos' or 'bondis'. Using 'coger' here will definitely cause a misunderstanding.
