- 1羽翼豐滿的；正式的、完全合格的
When a young bird is fledged, it has grown the feathers it needs to fly. Full-fledged first meant a bird that was ready to leave the nest. People now use it for a person, group, or thing that is completely ready and no longer half-formed: a full-fledged lawyer has finished the training and can work as one; a full-fledged member has all the rights, not a trial place; a full-fledged crisis is a real one, not a small scare people are still naming. It is about role, training, or status being complete — not about body size (that is full-grown). You will hear it in news and everyday talk; it is not slang, but it is a little colourful. American English likes this form; British English often instead. Same idea either way.
From the word’s history
full + fledged: first of a bird with all its feathers.
由 full（完全）加 fledged（羽毛長齊的）而成，原指能飛的鳥。
組成full + fledged. Fledged: having grown the feathers needed to fly.
