Travel or travel? Travel or journey: spelling doubt

It is common to have this doubt regarding the use of the word trip or journey! Whenever we are going to write, we are left with the unknown: I write with “g” or with “j”.

Let's clear up this problem once and for all! Watch:

The) The trip you're going to take will take a long time, won't it?

B) You're likely to travel today, aren't you?

What is the difference between these prayers above, in addition to the spellings travel and travel?

At first, trip is a substantive that is part of the subject. already in Monday, it is a verb of the subject “you”.

So every time travel is a noun and indicates the act of traveling, it must be written with “g”.

When is the inflection of the verb travel in the third person plural of the present subjunctive, it will come with “j”: that they travel as soon as possible, as the traffic is already starting to get bad.

See other examples:

Did you have a good trip?
It's not good for you to travel in rain.
I traveled to Espírito Santo and it was great!
The trip to Espírito Santo was great!
It's almost certain that my trip will be postponed!
