zubu-zubu
Sinking deeply into something wet or muddy. Figuratively, being deeply enmeshed in a questionable relationship or situation.
💡Walking through a flooded street — 'My shoes were zubu-zubu from the rain.'
田んぼにずぶずぶとはまった。
I sank zubu-zubu into the rice paddy.
After the storm, the garden path was ___ with mud.
嵐の後、庭の小道は○○とぬかるんでいた。
