To dredge means to dig up mud, sand, or objects from the bottom of a river, lake, or sea, usually with a special machine, often to make the water deeper for boats or to search for something lost. There's also a completely different cooking meaning: to dredge food is to lightly coat it in flour or sugar before cooking, by dragging it through the powder. And 'to dredge something up' means to bring back an old, often unpleasant memory.
疏浚、挖泥;(烹飪)裹粉
