you could trip if a few people um manipulate the size or shape or even make you think they are, of the sticks and marbles in front of you, then tell you your losing your balance. would you be open to reason or be a fallen trip that felled 22 from a belltower? so now hmmmmm. way to close to the tree. checks dont work when the outcomes are emphasized or de-emphasized. but hey grammer sucks.but if you take fall-al=tripp-trp you get flip hahaha. and the leftover is an acro for take reality pill and see if its bitter. my mistake is i blamed others for my own. sorry. then i wallered in it for awhile because sometimes you just gotta be a mud hippie.sorry again fte.

Obviously Jerry didn't see the car. Did he stumble into it (tripped)or did he put his foot on it (slipped) and slid as he fell?
Be more discriptive for a more colorful picture in the readers' minds.

to trip andto slip are different things. you can slip on a wet surface for example, to trip is when something physically restrains your foot or leg movement. so i would say he tripped over the toy car, not slipped

if he stepped on the car, he slipped and if he hit the car with his foot and fell, he tripped

They are both correct, but I like "tripped."

A person generally SLIPS and falls backward, or TRIPS and falls forward . . . if that helps.

Tripped is a more accurate description.
