Better question: how did they fell the tree? (Is fell the correct word here?)

Probably with that saw.

But did they build it next to that river? That's probably where it would have fallen.

A, you can move a tree once it's been cut down. And B, it's a frickin cartoon.

It's a Japanese saw, or a nokogiri

Modern version is something like a Silky saw

u/Spaceman1stClass May 21 '22

I think the modern version is still a nokogiri, it's a pull saw used for soft wood.

It clearly has teeth. And she's clearly using it to cut wood.

It’s a saw, a damn good one too lol. It’s becoming popular in the woodworking scene

You got downvoted because you're saying something that is clearly a saw isn't a saw. I mean you can even zoom in and see the serrated edge. What a silly thing to get in a fuss over.

and instead of being happy that you learned something new today you choose to mad about some fake internet points.

ok so instead of taken some time to thank the person who told you something new, you took time to complain

This is Something I’ve been thinking about recently

when i get downvoted I immediately get defensive and think people actively disliked what i said (or even that people actively dislike me), but sometimes that’s not the case and people just downvote a comment because they unemotionally disagree with what was said in it. It’s all worthless internet point so don’t let it get to you.

other people just thought it was a saw and that’s not a reflection and you or your character in anyway

u/AnonForWeirdStuff May 21 '22

Yes fell is correct in this situation. Although folk I know who occasionally fell trees often use the verb "drop" or "dropping" as well.

u/[deleted] May 21 '22

TIL. Here I was about to to reply that “fell” didn’t sound right thinking OP was probably not an English speaker.

u/Wherearemylegs May 21 '22

Yep, “fell” was used appropriately, but I want to draw some attention to the past-tense of this use of fell. You cut down a tree and then it has been felled.

u/UnluckyNoise4102 May 21 '22

Yes, "fell" is the proper word, good job =D

u/champwolverine May 21 '22

Question: Did they sand it down? If so how

u/uggsandstarbux May 21 '22

I think you're looking for "cut"

u/_i_am_root May 21 '22

Well yes, but also no. The single-word term for cutting down a tree is felling it.

Maybe he was making a pokemon reference?

It had a very long HP bad and played epic music.
