    to travel by standing at the side of the road and asking drivers who are passing to give you a free ride, often doing this again and again on a long trip.

    示範例句 · Example

    Ren and his brother hitchhiked across New Zealand during their summer break.

    逐字阿仁和他哥哥在他們的暑假期間搭便車橫越紐西蘭。

    「hitchhike」是站在路邊，向經過的陌生司機招手，請對方免費載你一段路。它是不及物動詞，後面直接接 around／to／across ＋ 地點（hitchhike around Europe、hitchhike to the next town），不會說 hitchhike a car。這個字可以想成是 hitch（把東西勾上去）加上 hike（長途的旅行），就像你把自己「勾」到別人的車上走一段，下車後再勾下一台。跟 get a ride／get a lift 容易搞混——get a ride 通常是搭認識的人的車、事先講好的；hitchhike 是攔下不認識的過路車。

可以想成一個畫面：你背著包站在路邊，手伸出去比個大拇指，沒有車票也沒有付錢，就等著陌生人的車停下來，載你走下一段路；到了他要轉彎的地方你就下車，再站到路邊等下一輛。整趟旅程就是這樣一段一段拼起來的。
