意味
To use a public bus for transportation.
文化的背景
In Mexico, buses are often called 'camiones'. Don't be surprised if someone asks if you 'agarraste el camión'. In Buenos Aires, the 'colectivo' (or 'bondi') is an icon of the city. They even have a specific art style called 'Fileteado' used to decorate them. While 'tomar' is understood, 'coger' is the standard. However, be very careful using 'coger' in Latin America as it is a vulgar slang for sex.
The 'Coger' Warning
If you are in Mexico or Argentina, always use 'tomar'. Using 'coger' will cause laughter or embarrassment.
Use the Article
Always say 'tomar UN autobús' or 'tomar EL autobús'. Dropping the article sounds very unnatural.
