Des questions concernant des phrases d'exemple avec, et la définition et l'utilisation de "Ride"

A: It could be literal e.g. they are riding a bike or in a moving car and they are enjoying it. Or it could be metaphorical, referring to a journey of sorts such as taking on a new activity, job or adventure e.g. learning how to surf.

Example:
Last month, I started learning to surf. It’s been hard but I’m really enjoying the ride.

Recently, I decided to say yes to whatever people asked me. It means I’ve done some strange things, but I’m really enjoying the ride.

A: For me it means you’re accompanying someone, but you’re not actually interested in where they’re going to or what they’re doing.

A: If you're accepting something, there's emphasis on the fact that something is BEING GIVEN to you.

For example, you "take" an apple. It's not being given to you, you just take it. If someone gives you an apple, you ACCEPT it.

So, basically, what's happening here is that his friends ("from friends") are offering him a ride, perhaps to drop him back home or to take him to school? And he ACCEPTS it.

A: "Do you want to ride back with us?"

--> He accepts rides from friends.

Note, it doesn't say accept A ride. It says "rides" and when it's used like this, it means that this is a frequent thing that happens between him and his friends.

A: Someone wants to go somewhere and is trying to convince someone else to go as well.

A: Firstly, we don't say "to home" in either, we just say home e.g. "She took me home".

There isn't much difference in most contexts, ride would imply a car or a bike helped, but the second sentence implies the same.

A: hey! We use the phrase “get on” a bike/the bus and “get in” a car. The word mount isn’t used much as we would just say “get on” the horse nowadays, but you can say “mount a horse”. I would say it’s a literary word, I hardly ever see it used besides in some books or a movie set in the past. It may also describe the action of a male animal getting on the female to mate, if you watch documentaries you may hear something like “the male lion tries to mount the female to mate”.

A: It depends on if you are a passenger or the driver.

If you are driving the boat yourself, then you say you are driving the boat. This is more common if it is a small private boat, and you have the training to drive it yourself.

If you are riding in the boat while someone else drives it, then you say you are riding in the boat. This is more common when it is a large boat, like a ferryboat, that you pay to ride across in. Or if you are invited to spend time with someone who has a boat, so they drive it but you only ride on it.
