1. 1難過到哽住(口語:心裡一酸、話卡住那種)

    In this use, choked means very upset — so full of feeling that you can hardly speak. Someone might say “I was choked” after bad news, or, though actually, after something kind as well: a thank-you speech, a goodbye, a surprise. The feeling sits in the throat, which is why English took the word from choke. This use is informal. You hear it more in British English than in careful American writing. Friends say it; a doctor would not write it on a form. It is not food stuck in your throat, and it is not the sports use where “he choked” means he failed because the moment was too big. Same spelling, different job.

組成From the verb choke; here strong feeling catches in your throat the way food can.
