Wait a moment, “schlepped” is an english word and it means the same like carrying? Because it’s from german word “schleppen”.
In English, it’s usually used in a context where there’s some humor, frustration, or irony involved, like in the comic.
“I carried my equipment out to the car”
Vs
“I schlepped all my brothers’ crap out to the car again”
Okay that sounds familiar. Germans use it the same way. Carry means “tragen” and nobody would use “schleppen” in a serious sentence.
My guess would be that the word made it into the English vocabulary via Yiddish.
Makes sense. Thx.
