What is a sentence using grave as a verb?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In modern English, grave is not normally used as a verb, but can be a noun, a noun adjunct (grave marker), or an adjective meaning serious.

The transitive verb grave is identical to engrave. But this is nearly an archaic usage. It has an old nautical use meaning to clean and coat a wooden hull with pitch.

Examples:

"It takes time to grave (engrave) a tombstone."

"In the drydock, the workers began to grave the keel of the old French ship."
