In the words of nobody in particular, “If you’re not using the final Thanksgiving break of your college career to take a road trip to New York City with other restless souls like yourself, then you’re probably doing something else.”
When the prospect of using our fall break to road trip to the Big Apple in lieu of watching every season of iCarly on Netflix from our ill-decorated bedrooms back home came to our attention, my friends and I knew what we must do. We planned the trip in a very detailed manner several weeks before our departure. I brought my wardrobe plan with me to every school assembly through the entire months of September and October to take advantage of the forced quiet time and plan and re-plan my every piece of clothing for the trip. A sampling of my inner monologue follows:
Do I wear the black pea coat over the wine button down and paisley tie on Sunday morning, or is that better saved for eveningwear? Is brown still in? What if someone notices that this Burberry bowtie is a fake? I know argyle is out, but can I wear it in an ironic way? WWKD (What Would Kanye Do)? Leopard print cardigan it is.
We knew that if we were going to pull this trip off, we had to be thrifty. We petitioned our families for non-perishable foodstuffs that we could cook for ourselves in the City to save money. I went to the local food outreach facility and listed my roommate and myself as needy so that we could get a few bags of canned goods and expired candy bars for the road (I understand that this seems a little shady, but NO REGRETS JUST LOVE.) We planned to steal cream cheese and a spinach wrap or two each from the cafeteria on the night of our departure to take on the road with us.
We stuffed the trunk until it literally would not fit a single furry boot more, and then smashed items in the various crevices (crevicae? crevisum? crevicee?) of the car interior, filling the back window with our snacks, our foot room with inflatable mattresses and blankets. Our route was simple enough:
We drove 16 hours straight, each taking a shift at the wheel. When it was time for my 2-6 am driving shift, I took a caffeine pill with a caffeinated soda to wake myself up. I then puked into the garbage can at a gas station in South Carolina. Several times. I recovered soon enough and we were on our way again. After leaving another gas station, we had very nearly made it to the main highway after a pit stop before realizing that I had left my phone ON THE ROOF OF THE CAR like the irresponsible muggle that I am. Luckily it was still intact, though any arguments for my sanity were far gone by that point.
We arrived in the City the next afternoon. It was just as lovely as I remember. I don’t know what it is, but to me, a spiraling cityscape is just as beautiful as a mountain range or seaside. What can I say? I ❤ NY.
We spent the trip doing very New York things:
Sending letters to Santa from Macy’s in Times Square.
Santa hears all requests.
Reading the Village Voice and playing the harmonica (no song in particular, just joyful blats along the line) on a street corner in Jersey City like the vagabonds that we were.
Riding the subway and **not** thinking about the movie The Midnight Meat Train and what happened to those innocent subway-riders. So much blood.
Seeing Bonnie and Clyde, a new show that closed a month after opening (We liked it, though!)
Ice skating in Bryant Park. Waiting for Kate Beckinsale to show up with our missing glove. She never did come, though.
Wench.
Browsing for books in Strand.
Taking this photo.
Eating food from carts.
“Mystery meat on a stick.”
Judge not, lest ye yourself should also eat and/or become mystery meat on a stick.
I SAID GOOD DAY.
Eating really flat pizza, which is apparently a thing.
Eating Chinese food at this restaurant that got a B rating for cleanliness BUT WE WERE THANKFUL.
Getting cocoa and cookies from Magnolia Bakery and loitering outside Radio City Music Hall, because it felt right.
Seeing Kim Catrall on the street.
Seeing Kim Catrall on the street.
WE SAW KIM CATRALL ON THE STREET, I TELL YOU.
And reuniting with this PRECIOUS LAMB (remember her?) who I hadn’t seen in months and had never seen on American soil!
We spent the afternoon finding filming locations from Sex and the City, like all self-respecting, educated young adults ought.
When our trip came to an end, we made our way back to the Sunshine State to spend Thanksgiving with our families. The concrete jungle was kind to us, and although I never saw Bernadette Peters in the street, I could feel her with me. And I still do, even now.
AND that’s our trip in a nutshell!
Or should I say AN APPLE????
I shouldn’t.
…
Goodbye. Forever, probably.
Or at least until next time.
Whenever that will be.
I SAID GOOD DAY.
-Isaac
A road trip is a journey taken by a group or individual in an automobile. Roadtrip is a misspelling of road trip. Road trip is an open compound noun, meaning it is two words that have a unique meaning when used together.
A road trip is a common form of summer vacation for families in the United States.
Road trips can cover many days and include multiple stops in several states or a road trip can be just a short overnight trip.

Enjoy your trip!
Everyone loves a good “road trip.” You’d probably love it even more if you knew how to spell it. This article will help you figure out whether it’s one or two words. We’ll also include all the language rules that make this the case!
“Road trip” is two words. We use it as a phrasal noun, which means it has to be kept as a phrase (more than one word). Phrasal nouns typically use the first word as a modifier (“road”) and the second word as the action or activity (“trip”). “Roadtrip” is incorrect.
According to Google Ngram Viewer, “road trip” is by far the most popular choice of the two. This graph makes it quite clear that the two-word variation is the only one that is grammatically correct. We should avoid using “roadtrip” (as you can see from the graph).
The Cambridge Dictionary and The Oxford Dictionary provide entries for “road trip” as a phrasal noun. This is more than enough for us to understand that the two-word variation is the only correct one and the only one we should use.
Both dictionaries also mention that “road-trip” can be hyphenated, but this only applies in the verb form. However, there isn’t a single mention of “roadtrip” as a one-word variation, so make sure you do not use this.
Is “Roadtrip” One Word?
“Roadtrip” is not correct as one word. We cannot group it in this way because it takes away from the meaning of the phrasal noun. “Road” needs to be kept separate to show how the word “trip” is modified in our writing.
AP Stylebook rules sometimes allow us to group words together, but these rules rarely apply to phrasal nouns.
Some native speakers will still try to ignore AP Style rules in favor of simplifying the language. Unfortunately, using “roadtrip” as one word is not a way to simplify the language. We must always keep them as two words.
Incidentally, we would be able to write “road-trip” as a hyphenated form (thanks to AP Style rules). However, this only applies when we’re working with the verb form:
- We road-tripped around the country.
How about checking out a few of these examples to show you which is the correct form:
- Correct: If you’d like to go on a road trip with me, you’re going to need to pack your bags pretty soon.
- Incorrect: I thought you said this would be a fun roadtrip! I’m not having fun at all.
- Correct: Whatever you say about this road trip, I don’t want you telling anyone what happened back there!
- Incorrect: I did enjoy the roadtrip, but I didn’t enjoy the company. I don’t think I’ll do it with him again.
Is “Road trip” Two Words?
“Road trip” should always be written as two words. It is known as a phrasal noun, and we can use “road” as an adjective to modify the word “trip.” This shows that we’re going to be taking a long journey on the roads (sometimes without a specific destination).
Whenever we use phrasal nouns, we have to remember to build them with adjectives and nouns (or verbs). “Road” is the adjective, and “trip” is the noun. As long as we remember this combination, we’ll remember that it’s two words.
Here are some examples that should clear things up for you:
- Are you ready for our road trip? I have so many things packed and ready to go!
- It’s going to be the biggest road trip we’ve ever been on! I really cannot wait to see what we’re going to find!
- Let’s go on a road trip! I’m so bored being cooped up like a chicken!
- I didn’t like the road trip. It was too long, and I had a headache the entire time!
Tip To Remember The Difference
We’ll finish up with a quick tip that should clear up any confusion (if you still have any). Once you’ve understood this part, you’ll never forget the spelling again.
“Road trip” is always two words. “Road trips” are often long and require a lot of patience. Including a space in a word is also longer than removing it. Therefore, we can remember always to include the space between “road trip” to show it’s a long journey.
