Sample Sentences
-
A messe of milke sopt with white bread. [1687, John Aubrey, Remaines of Gentilisme and Judaisme, page 29:]
-
When I die, don't bury me deep, / Put a jug of 'lasses at my feet, / And a piece of corn bread in my hand, / Gwine to sop my way to the promised land. [1928, Newman Ivey White, American Negro Folk-Songs, Cambridge: Harvard University Press, page 227:]
-
So again let me say that sopping bread into gravy can be done properly merely by putting a piece down on the gravy and then soaking it with the help of a knife and fork as though it were any other food. But taking a soft piece of bread and pushing it under the sauce with your fingers, submerging them as well as the bread, or even wiping the plate with it would be very bad manners indeed. [1945 December 27, Emily Post, “Sopping Bread May Be Done”, in The Spokesman-Review:]
