oar vs. ore

oar

 

oar

(a pole with a flat blade at one end, used for rowing a boat)

  • I took an oar and rowed the boat out to sea.
  • We pulled hard on the oars until we reached to the shore.

 

ore

(rock, earth, etc. from which you get metal)

  • The ship was carrying a load of silver ore.
  • They found a rich vein of iron ore in the hillside.
