核心畫面
You can picture accursed as a mark that somebody laid on a thing on purpose: a curse spoken over a house, a family, a hill, so that from then on things go wrong there and keep going wrong. The whole word is the state left behind after that speaking.

accursed 可以想成「有人對它下過咒」留下的那個印記：有人對一棟房子、一個家族、一座山說了狠話，從此那裡事事不順，而且一直不順。整個字就是那句咒語說完之後留下來的狀態。抓住這個畫面，現代那個罵東西的用法就很好懂了——說話的人是把這句古老的咒語搬過來用。From the word’s history
From Middle English acursed, the past participle of acursen (to curse), from Old English acursian, built on curs (curse); first attested in the 13th century. The word is literally the finished act of cursing, frozen as a description.
來自中古英語 acursed，是動詞 acursen（詛咒）的過去分詞，再往前是古英語 ācursian，字根是 curs（curse）。十三世紀就有紀錄。所以這個字字面上就是「詛咒這個動作做完之後的狀態」，被凍成一個形容詞。

把咒語搬來罵東西
同一個畫面，但說話的人只是借用它。他不相信有咒語，他要的是那句話的力道。
