Hi,

''The buses come further apart at weekends.'' (There are bigger time gaps between the buses.) Does the first sentence make sense?

"The floor on the bus was elevated in one part and I was standing with my left foot on the raised part and with my right on the low part. That is why I struggled to keep my balance." Would you understand what I'm trying to say if I talked to you about it or would you say it differently if you were me?

''He stayed at or in the student halls."

Thank you.
