* Awkwardness: The sentence is in the past tense, but it implies a repeated action over a longer period.
* Better Phrase: "I took the bus to school all year." This makes the sentence more clear and grammatically sound.
Here's a breakdown:
* "Rode" is a past tense verb used for a single instance of riding.
* "Took" is a past tense verb that can describe a repeated action.
You could also say:
* "I rode the bus to school every day." This emphasizes the repetition.
Ultimately, both options are grammatically correct, but the second is more natural and flows better.
