Learners sometimes use only 'run' or 'go' when the movement is difficult or involves hands and feet (for example on rocks or a steep hill). In these cases, 'scramble' or 'climb' is more natural. Also, some learners confuse 'scramble' with 'ramble' (which means to walk without a clear plan, not quickly or awkwardly).
Anlam
move or act quickly and awkwardly
Eşdizimler
scramble up the hill
|scramble to his feet
|scramble out of bed
