Additional Notes:
Dutch ..... Gebruik voor lange of wijde delen van het land van waaruit de aarde is verwijderd, meestal door het graven van sleuven of afgraving. Voor verticale diepe holtes in de aarde om vloeistoffen naar boven te halen, gebruik "putten." Voor ondiepe grote uithollingen in de aarde om materialen te winnne of te begraven, gebruik 'groeven'.
