How to use English for transportation abroad?

There's a ticket machine right over there. You can choose English on the screen. Just select your zone and ticket type.

那边有个自动售票机。屏幕上可以选英语。选好区域和票种就行。

A day pass is $5 — unlimited rides until midnight. A single ride is $2.75. So if you're riding more than twice, the day pass is a better deal.

日票5美元——午夜前不限次乘坐。单程票2.75美元。坐两次以上的话日票更划算。

Yes, cards and contactless payment both work. Don't forget to validate your ticket before you board — there's a little machine on the platform.

可以，信用卡和非接触支付都行。别忘了上车前在月台的小机器上验票。

💡 很多欧洲城市的公共交通采用信用制——没有闸机，但会有便衣检票员随机查票。逃票罚款很重。

Good afternoon. Tickets, please.

下午好。请出示车票。

Hmm, I don't see a validation stamp on this. When did you buy it?

嗯，我没看到验票印章。你什么时候买的？

I understand. Since you do have a valid ticket, I'll let it go this time. Let me stamp it for you now. Next time, look for the yellow validation machine on the platform — insert the ticket and it prints the date and time.

我理解。既然你确实有票，这次就算了。我帮你盖章。下次找月台上的黄色验票机——把票插进去就会打印日期和时间。
