How do you use lumbered in a sentence?

The word "lumbered" is the past tense of the verb "to lumber," which means to move in a slow, clumsy, or heavy way. Here are some examples of how to use it in a sentence:

* The old man lumbered across the room, his joints aching with each step. (This sentence emphasizes the slow and heavy movement.)

* The overloaded truck lumbered down the hill, its brakes groaning in protest. (This sentence highlights the clumsiness and effort of the movement.)

* After the heavy meal, I lumbered to the sofa and promptly fell asleep. (This sentence uses "lumbered" to describe a feeling of heaviness and sluggishness.)

It's important to note that "lumbered" is not a common word, and it's often used in a figurative sense to emphasize the weight or difficulty of movement.
