    乗客: passenger. The Japanese noun '乗客 (じょうきゃく)' refers to a 'passenger', specifically someone who is traveling in a vehicle such as a train, bus, airplane, or ship. This word is commonly used in transportation contexts. For example: The passengers got off the train「乗客は電車を降りた」(じょうきゃくはでんしゃをおりた). There were many passengers on the bus「バスには多くの乗客がいた」(バスにはおおくのじょうきゃくがいた). The word emphasizes the role of the person as someone being transported, rather than the driver or operator of the vehicle.
