Вы имеете в виду get on the bus?
Get a bus не говорят.

You can use both

e.g.

I get a bus to the train station every day.

I take a bus to London and then get a train.

You may also get a bus to O' Connell Street. You then have a 10 minute walk to us by continuing up O’Connell Street in a southerly direction (towards the O’Connell bridge end) crossing over O'Connell bridge, continuing up D' Olier Street and turning left onto Pearse Street.

There is also an airport in Dundee, with flights coming from London City airport. Details from Scotairways. From Dundee, you can get a bus to St Andrews.

Выходит, что get a bus to употребляется, но является своего рода просторечием. А take a bus - грамотно.

I have to take a bus to work today.(good)
I have to catch a bus to work today.(good)
I have to get a bus to work today(not too good)

You get on the bus but you don't easily "get a bus". But you can take or catch a bus.

To me, if I "take a bus" or "catch a bus" I mean basically the same thing - that I will be riding a bus.

I can see the possibility of "get a bus" in certain contexts - for example, let's say that I have been given the task of arranging transportation for a large group of people. If I "get a bus" that means that I will be acquiring one for their use and may or may not be riding it myself.

Casual Asker - cогласен. Спасибо.
