Grammar Notes & Usage Tips
•Use を before 並べる to mark the things you are lining up—for example, 本を並べる means "to line up books."
•If you're lining things up at a place, add で to show where—つくえの上でコップを並べる means "line up the cups on the desk."
•Don't confuse 並べる (to line things up) with 並ぶ (to line up yourself); 並べる is something you do to other things.
