- 1碳酸的、有氣的（碳酸飲料；台灣也常說汽水）
When a drink is carbonated, it holds tiny bubbles of carbon dioxide. That is the tingle in cola, soda water, sparkling water, and many beers. The gas was pushed in under pressure; when you open the bottle the pressure drops and the bubbles rush out. If the gas has already left, people say the drink has gone flat — it is still the same liquid, just not carbonated any more. Still water is the opposite: no bubbles on purpose. Though actually, carbonated is a slightly careful, label-like word. At a shop most people say fizzy, sparkling, or just soda. You will see carbonated on bottles, menus that want to sound precise, and in science talk. It does not mean ‘this drink contains carbon as in living things’ — almost all food has carbon in that broad sense. Here it only means ‘this has the bubble-gas in it’.
組成carbonate + -ed: the -ed says the gas has already been put in.
