喜樂美語
  1. 1

    A carver is someone who wood or stone — who cuts shapes by taking material away, making figures, patterns, furniture, or the faces on a temple wall. That is the sense here, the one you meet in art and museums. Though actually, the same word has a homelier life too: at a British Sunday table the carver is the person who cuts the roast, and a carver can also be the special knife they use. As a family name, Carver comes from the old job. Look at the rest of the sentence to see which carver you have.
