<strong>Do you know how to use AISLE - CORRIDOR - LANE correctly ?</strong></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here are some tips to help you remember</div>
<br />
<strong>AISLE</strong><br />
<em>We use aisle for narrow passages with seats (or shelves) on either side</em><br />
<br />
1) The bride is walking down the aisle (Church)<br />
2) Our seats are in row two on the left of the aisle (Cinema & Theatre)<br />
3) The aisle is only wide enough for one trolley to pass (Supermarket)<br />
<br />
<strong>LANE</strong><br />
<em>We use lane for passages for vehicles and moving objects</em><br />
<br />
1) He always drives in the fast lane (Motorway/Highway)<br />
2) The small lane was very windy and narrow (Country road)<br />
3) In lane 4 we have Mark Spitz (Swimming Pool)<br />
4) Michael Jordan is running in lane 4 (Running track)<br />
5) Coming up fast on the outside lane is Shergar (Horse racing track)<br />
<br />
<strong>CORRIDOR</strong><br />
<em>We use corridor for passages in buildings with rooms on either side</em><br />
<br />
1) Children, don't run in the corridor ! (School)<br />
2) The accountant's office is the third left along the corridor (Public building)</div>
