vyhloubily

Vyhloubily is a Czech word that translates to "they dug" or "they had dug" in English. It is the past tense, plural form of the verb "vyhloubit," which means to deepen, to excavate, or to hollow out. The word is used to describe an action performed by multiple subjects in the past.

For example, one might say "Selští rolníci vyhloubily nové studny na svých polích" which translates to "The peasant farmers dug new wells in their fields." In this context, "vyhloubily" clearly indicates that the action of digging was carried out by more than one farmer. The word can be used for literal digging, such as excavating soil or creating a hole, but it can also be used metaphorically.

Metaphorically, "vyhloubily" can describe a deepening of a relationship, an understanding, or a problem. For instance, "Neshody mezi nimi vyhloubily propast" could be translated as "The disagreements between them dug/deepened a chasm." Here, the word suggests a growing distance or division caused by the disagreements. The specific meaning is usually clear from the surrounding context.
