What is a trench???

Question

my friend said that he was digging a trench. what is it??

Answer 1

A trench is also use to irrigate or to direct water.

Answer 2

Since this is in the gardening section I guess your friend is not digging a war zone trench but one in which he will put a lot of organic material and newspaper which will rot down and hold moisture in the soil for next year when he plants runner beans or similar in it. A trench can be of any length and depth. Doesn't need to be too deep as most veg roots are not very long.
It is like a ditch which is dug to be filled.

Answer 3

A trench is a type of excavation or depression in the ground. Trenches are generally defined by being deeper than they are wide (as opposed to a wider gully or ditch), and by being narrow compared to their length (as opposed to a simple hole).

Hope this works.

Answer 4

It's another name for a ditch. They fought from trenches in WW1. That's where we get the term "trench warfare". Each side built huge ditches (trenches) across the countryside in Europe. Sometimes they were many many miles long and they faced each other from these trenches across a no-man's land when the war came to a stalemate.
