exit from or alight from ?

I suppose your question is much easier than your previous post, bloke.

In the UK, people do say " alight from the bus".
It is 100% correct.
Trust me! I spent over 33 years there.
Hope that helps!

It is correct to say " alight from the subway" as well.

" to exit from the subway" is correct, but " to alight from the subway" is
more common than " to exit from the subway".

One more word related to your previous post, pal.

In popular music, a cover version, or simply cover, is a new rendition (performance or recording) of a previously recorded, commercially released song.

In its current use, it can sometimes have a pejorative meaning — implying that the original recording should be regarded as the definitive version,

usually in the sense of an "authentic" rendition, and all others are merely lesser competitors,
alternatives or tributes (no matter how popular).

In the U.K, we call " subway" " underground".
