English Vocabulary for Travel
ভ্রমণের ইংরেজি শব্দভান্ডার
Introductionভূমিকা
Travel puts you in situations where you must speak up: checking in at the airport, finding a hotel, catching transport, and asking the way. A focused set of travel words and phrases lets you handle each step calmly in English.
ভ্রমণে এমন পরিস্থিতি আসে যেখানে কথা বলতেই হয়: বিমানবন্দরে চেক-ইন, হোটেল খোঁজা, যানবাহন ধরা, ও পথ জিজ্ঞাসা করা। ভ্রমণের কিছু নির্দিষ্ট শব্দ ও বাক্যাংশ জানলে প্রতিটি ধাপ ইংরেজিতে সহজে সামলাতে পারবেন।
Definitionসংজ্ঞা
Travel vocabulary covers the words and phrases you need on a trip: boarding pass, luggage, booking, platform, direction words, and questions like 'Where is the gate?' or 'How do I get to the station?'.
Travel vocabulary বলতে ভ্রমণে দরকারি শব্দ ও বাক্যাংশ বোঝায়: boarding pass (বোর্ডিং পাস), luggage (মালপত্র), booking (বুকিং), platform (প্ল্যাটফর্ম), দিক-নির্দেশের শব্দ, এবং 'Where is the gate?' বা 'How do I get to the station?'-এর মতো প্রশ্ন।
Bangla Explanationবাংলা ব্যাখ্যা
ভ্রমণের ইংরেজিকে কয়েকটি জায়গায় ভাগ করলে শেখা সহজ হয়: (১) বিমানবন্দর — check-in (চেক-ইন), boarding pass, gate (গেট), departure (ছাড়া), arrival (পৌঁছানো), luggage/baggage (মালপত্র); (২) হোটেল — booking/reservation (বুকিং), check in/check out, room key, receptionist; (৩) যানবাহন — ticket, platform, one-way (একমুখী), return/round trip (যাওয়া-আসা); (৪) পথ জিজ্ঞাসা — 'Excuse me, how do I get to…?', turn left/right (বাঁয়ে/ডানে ঘুরুন), go straight (সোজা যান), next to (পাশে), opposite (উল্টো দিকে)। মনে রাখবেন — 'luggage' uncountable, তাই 'luggages' হয় না; একটি ব্যাগ বোঝাতে 'a piece of luggage' বা 'a suitcase'।

Common Mistakesসাধারণ ভুল
I have three luggages.
I have three bags. / I have three pieces of luggage.
'Luggage' is uncountable, so it has no plural -s. Count with 'bags/suitcases' or 'pieces of luggage'.
How I can go to the airport?
How can I get to the airport?
In questions the order is 'How can I…?', and the natural verb for directions is 'get to'.
I want a two-way ticket.
I'd like a return ticket. / a round-trip ticket.
The set terms are 'return' (British) or 'round-trip' (American); 'two-way ticket' is not used.
Where is situated the hotel?
Where is the hotel? / Where is the hotel located?
Keep the word order simple: 'Where is the hotel?'. If you use 'located', it goes after the subject.
Tipsটিপস
- Learn direction words as opposite pairs: left/right, straight/back, near/far — you will use them together. — দিক-নির্দেশের শব্দ বিপরীত জোড়ায় শিখুন: left/right, straight/back, near/far — এগুলো একসাথেই কাজে লাগবে।
- Start any question to a stranger with 'Excuse me' — it is the polite opener for asking the way or the time. — অপরিচিত কাউকে প্রশ্ন করার আগে 'Excuse me' দিয়ে শুরু করুন — পথ বা সময় জিজ্ঞাসার এটি ভদ্র সূচনা।
- Remember 'luggage', 'baggage' and 'information' are uncountable — never add -s to them. — 'luggage', 'baggage' ও 'information' uncountable — এগুলোতে কখনো -s যোগ করবেন না।
- Keep a rescue phrase ready: 'Could you repeat that slowly, please?' for when someone speaks too fast. — একটি 'রেসকিউ' বাক্য তৈরি রাখুন: কেউ দ্রুত বললে বলুন — 'Could you repeat that slowly, please?'

How do I ask for directions in English when I am lost?
Start with 'Excuse me', then ask 'How do I get to…?' or 'Is this the way to…?'. Learn 'turn left/right', 'go straight' and 'next to' so you can understand the reply.
Why is 'luggage' never used with an -s?
'Luggage' is an uncountable noun, so it has no plural form. To count, say 'two bags', 'three suitcases', or 'two pieces of luggage'.
