Thank you very much.
But I have one more question.
Is it natural to say " The waves washed up the monster on the beach"
"The monster was washed up on the shore"
And does "washed up" in this sentence mean "deposit"?

JumanahAnd does "washed up" in this sentence mean "deposit"?
Not exactly. The action of water is the agent. It means that the monster's body floated on the waves and currents which pushed it onto the beach. Lots of trash is discarded from ships and carried to shore by waves and water currents.
