Vocabulary
engrave vs. carve
Hi~
I have a question about the words engrave or carve
Which one is used figuratively to mean that, like, some good memories remained in heart ? Or abuseful lesson/ a piece of advice kept in mind.
Or would you use another word for that in poems?

Both are OK.
'Engrave' is more common, I think.
To me, 'carve' suggests a deeper and more painful process.
