What is belaying?
Belay means to protect or provide safety. In rock climbing, this means someone on the ground provides a stable base for the climber with their own body weight along with ropes, harnesses, anchors and other devices. In the event of a slip by the climber, the belay device locks and prevents a fall

What is bouldering?
Bouldering is climbing horizontally or laterally across a rock without using climbing gear.
