Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time.

Dutch, Rfv-sense of "to dig in, to entrench" (transitive, there is a separate undisputed sense for "to dig oneself in"). My understanding is that schans in the relevant sense refers to either an (earthen) defensive wall often similar to a glacis or a small bastion with such walls, but not to a trench, and that verschansen can generally means "to fortify" or specifically "to build sconces", but not specifically "to entrench". ←₰-→ Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk) 09:44, 14 January 2019 (UTC)
