1. 1受到信貸緊縮衝擊的(credit crunch=信貸緊縮,不是個人信用分數變差)

    Credit-crunched is a newspaper-style adjective meaning “hit hard by the credit crunch.” A credit crunch is a time when banks suddenly become unwilling to lend, so companies and families cannot easily borrow. A credit-crunched firm may freeze hiring; credit-crunched spend less. It is not about one person’s credit-card score or a bad credit rating. The phrase was everywhere around the 2008 money crash; you still meet it when people talk about tight lending, but it can sound a bit like a headline from that year — informal to slightly , not a word for a school essay unless you are discussing that crisis.
