過ちから学びましょう - Trip vs. Travel

A lot of people make mistakes with the words “trip” and “travel”. Do you know the difference (違い)? It’s very easy.
1. Trip is always a noun (名詞).
例："Have a nice trip.” (ｘHave a nice travel.)
2. You can say “take a trip” for 旅する。
例："I want to take a trip to Canada.” (ｘI want to trip to Canada.)
3. Travel can be a noun (名詞) or a verb (動詞).
例："He traveled to Hawaii.” (x He tripped to Hawaii.)
例："Travel is expensive at New Year’s. (xTrip is expensive at New Year's)
4. “Travel” has a wider meaning (意味) than “trip”when it is a noun. “Trip” sounds like you are going somewhere one time. Travel is the action of going to another place or the name of a hobby.　
例："I really love travel." (x I really love trip.)
