Explanation:
Defining Travel
Oxford English Dictionary (henceforth, OED) defines ‗travel‘ as ―to go from one
place to another over a long distance‖ (1384). Roget’s Thesaurus defines it as ‗journey‘. It
also lists, among others, words such as cruising, excursion, expedition, globe-trotting,
movement, navigation, passage, sightseeing, tour, touring, voyage, wanderlust as synonyms
of travel. Indeed all these words express movement from one place to another place. Also,
entailed in all these words is the idea of movement over a long distance. Travel involves a
physical act. It is the body of the traveller which undertakes the physical act. It works away
from any wandering of the mind. This idea of travel will reject the fanciful and imaginary
journeys undertaken by writers of novels or epics. Away from a virtual space conjured up by
the imagination of a creative writer, ‗travel‘ as defined above is ‗this worldly‘. Another
dimension to this travel and its synonyms as well is a sense of risk or adventure. Whether it is
cruising or excursion, or expedition, globe-trotting, or other synonyms, there is a sense of
risk-taking. In other words, to undertake a travel is to put oneself in some sort of danger.
