A frame is the supporting structure of a building, piece of furniture, vehicle, or other object, designed to shape and hold everything together. It provides stability and strength, ensuring that the item can withstand weight and pressure. In buildings, frames are typically made from materials like wood or metal and serve as the skeleton, defining the overall shape and layout. In furniture, frames support surfaces like tables and chairs, while in vehicles, they form the foundation that holds various components in place. The design and quality of a frame are crucial for the durability and functionality of the item it supports.

A plank is a long, flat, and typically wide piece of wood or other material, often thicker than a board. Planks are commonly used in construction, flooring, and furniture making due to their strength and size. They can be used to build walls, decks, or even bridges, and are often incorporated into larger structures for stability and durability. Planks can also be cut into smaller pieces or shaped to fit specific needs. They are especially valued for their durability and natural appearance, particularly when made from hardwood.

An oar is a long, flat tool used to row or steer a boat. It typically has a handle on one end and a broad blade on the other. The blade is placed in the water and pushed or pulled to move the boat forward. Oars are commonly used in rowing, where the rower alternates using them to propel the boat. They can be used individually or in pairs, depending on the type of boat. The design allows for efficient movement through the water, offering control and speed.

A rower is a person who participates in rowing, a sport where athletes propel a boat through water using oars. Rowers sit in the boat and push against the water with their oars, using strength, technique, and coordination to move the boat forward. Rowing can be done individually or as part of a team, with different boat sizes and race distances. It requires endurance, timing, and teamwork, especially in team events where coordination between rowers is key. Rowing is both a recreational activity and a competitive sport, often practiced in rivers, lakes, or rowing clubs.
