Question about Japanese
Please provide some examples using the verb “遊ぶ”. I have seen my teacher using both “で” and “と” with the verb but I don't remember the specific examples exactly. Another question I have about it is can you use it to say “I play games" or you can only use “する” for that?

"〜で遊ぶ" is "play by using〜".
(put a tool's name in the "〜")
"〜と遊ぶ" is "play with〜".
(put somebody's name in "〜")
ex)
おもちゃで遊ぶ
友達と遊ぶ
is that make sense??

@hainy thanks! So for で can you say ゲームで遊びます or you have to put the game console name instead of just the word “game” or the name of the game?
