Where is the shudder from in this sentence? ‘The elevator rose with a shudder.’ The sentence is from here: https://www.lexico.com/definition/shudder ‘The elevator rose with a shudder.’ Is shudder from the machine elevater or the human being in it? The dictionary defines shudder is a kind of act, then shudder should be a shaking movement men make rather then the elevator shaking or vibrating violently? Correct me if I am wrong, thanks.

Machines can move with a shudder or start with a shudder. In fact all engines start with a shudder. It is just a question of how much shudder. You forget to read definition 1.1 ESPECIALLY OF A MACHINE
