Two entries share this spelling. The everyday one is just the past participle of draw — the form you use after have/has/had or after be.

這個字其實是兩個不同的字。日常大量出現的是 draw 的過去分詞——放在 have/has/had 或 be 後面的那個形式(have drawn a picture、was drawn across the room)。另一個是形容臉的形容詞:瘦、蒼白、看起來緊繃。一種把兩者放在一起記的方式是回到 draw 本身「拉」的畫面:有東西被拉過了;到了形容詞這邊,被拉的是臉上的皮,看起來像緊緊繃在骨頭上。原始詞典資料5 筆記錄
