What is the correct expression?





alien boy
Japan

The other thing to bear in mind is that there is no intention to actually injure someone when competing with judo. As such, then, they are �playing� as distinct from �fighting�. The same thing applies to kendo (Japanese fencing). Both of these pursuits are potentially fatal if used in a full contact environment and/or with real weapons. This may be another reason why �play judo/kendo � might be appropriate rather than �do�.
