Yesterday we looked at the nouns “paddle” and “oar”. Today we look at the two in action!
PADDLE vs. ROW
(パドルを使って)漕ぐ vs. (オールを使って)漕ぐ
- Have you ever tried to paddle a canoe upstream (= against the current)? It's hard work!

- I got blisters on my hands from rowing all afternoon.
- Give me the oars. I'll row for a while.

Gently down the stream ...
... Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily
Life is but a dream!
