For example, one might say they were "rammed into" accepting a deal under duress. 3. Repeatedly pushing or driving something: In another sense, ramming can describe the action of repeatedly pushing, forcing, or driving something (could be an object or an idea) into another place, being, or space, emphasizing the continuous and often forceful action. 4. Types of ramming: - Packing or stuffing into a container: This involves forcing or ramming object into a space, such as packing items into a bag or container. - Forcing through an opening: This might imply forcing one's way through an entrance or an existing gap to gain access to a space, sometimes with difficulty.

It can also describe a word or phrase that has a complicated or branching grammar. Example: "The ramose sentence was difficult to parse." In ancient Egyptian architecture, a ramose was a type of curved or branching architectural feature, often used in temples and other monumental buildings.
