plow
To cut, inscribe, or engrave (on stone, wood, or metal); to plow, to incise or form furrows in soil; (by extension) to fabricate or craft, particularly as an artisan or smith. In figurative use: to devise, plot, or plan (usually with negative connotations); to be silent or keep silent, especially in a deliberate or calculated manner; to be deaf (rare, possibly as a secondary development from 'not hearing' in the sense of silence). The semantic range covers both physical acts of craftsmanship and cultivation, as well as actions of secret planning, contrivance, or silence.
