A trench is a long, narrow ditch dug in the ground. It is usually used for military purposes, such as for sheltering soldiers from enemy fire.
Trenches can be very deep, sometimes up to 20 feet deep. They can also be very long, sometimes up to miles long.
Trenches are often dug in a zigzag pattern, so that soldiers can move from one trench to another without being exposed to enemy fire.
Trenches were used extensively during World War I, and they played an important role in the fighting. They are still used today in some military conflicts.
The soldiers dug trenches to protect themselves from enemy fire.
