喜樂美語
  1. 1

    A failed actor, a failed writer, a failed businessman: these are people who wanted that life and did not get there. Failed here sits in front of a job-word (or a role-word) and paints a type — not one bad night, but a path that did not come off. It is often . Magazines use it because it is sharp and small. It is not the same as the verb in ‘she failed the exam’, which is one event you can try again. You can say he is unsuccessful as an actor and mean the same facts with a softer hand. Keep the pattern: failed + the thing they wanted to be. That is the meaning filed here.

    沒當成的（a failed actor＝沒當成演員的人；語氣常偏苛）
