SHOWERING AND ON-SET

Dear Teachers,

- "Zac isn't a big fan of showering", an on-set insider revealed. "It's so gross, because Zac loves to work out and play basketball all the time.

- What do "showering" and "on-set" mean in this situation?

Thanks very much!

Stevenukd.

Sorry to interrupt. Is there a difference between shower and bathe?
I've always thought bath uses a bath tub or the person will be lying down or submerged in water, while shower uses a shower stall/shower head, in other words, the person will be standing.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.

bathe is very general, you can do it by showering, being submerged is not a prerequisite:

That's interesting. I remember I was corrected for using bathe when I actually took a shower. I guess the native speaker was being picky.

Thanks, MH.
