用法筆記

Almost always uncountable: 'I love canoeing', not 'a canoeing'. Subject is normally a person or group; the surrounding water is named with 'on' (lakes, calm rivers) or 'down' (a flowing river: 'canoeing down the Wye'). Frequently appears in the fixed pattern 'go canoeing', alongside other outdoor pursuits like 'go hiking' and 'go fishing'.

'canoeing' is uncountable, and the standard verb is 'go', not 'do' with an article.

to talk about the activity itself, use the '-ing' form; 'canoe' alone is the boat.

canoeing happens on water, not on land or hills.
