@ppaisley What if two people walk in opposite directions and collide? Is it bump into each other or bump against each other?
- English (US)
I would use into instead of against but they both mean the same thing
I guess it’s a bit more common to use into whenever people collide but against is more used when someone is being slammed against something
- English (US)
But since they mean the same, both could work @HectorABC
