吞没公款

embezzle public funds

海水把小船吞没了。

The sea engulfed the small boat.

雪崩吞没了一切。

The avalanche swallowed up everything.

火焰把房子吞没了。

The blaze engulfed the house.

流沙乘着西北风，不断向东南移动，吞没了一片片农田

carried by northwesterly winds, shifting sands have moved continuously southeastwards and engulfed huge tracts of farmland
