Examples of shovel in in a Sentence
We all have a shovel in life. Some of us use it to build a pyramid with a great view, and some dig a hole to nowhere.
A verb has a hard enough time of it in this world when it is all together. It's downright inhuman to split it up. But that's what those Germans do. They take part of a verb and put it down here, like a stake, and they take the other part of it and put it a way over yonder like another stake, and between these two limits they just shovel in German.
