Oar
From Wikipedia, a free encyclopedia written in simple English for easy reading.
An oar is a tool used for water-propulsion. Oars have a flat blade at one end. The oarsmen grasp the oar at the other end. What distinguishes oars from paddles is that paddles are held by the paddler, and are not connected with the vessel. Oars generally are fastened to the vessel.
