看得見的鉤子：形狀與配件
這一族講的是實物：不是整體彎成鉤狀，就是身上多裝了一個鉤子。共同點是鉤子看得見、摸得到。
adjective · B2
Bent into a curve at the end, in the shape of a hook — said about a nose, a beak, a claw, or anything with that bent-over shape.
鉤狀的
核心畫面
Think of a single hook. Two things are true about it at once: it is bent over at the end, and once it catches something, that thing does not come off easily. Every use of hooked takes one of those two. A nose, a , a claw is hooked because of the bend. A pole or a rail is hooked because a hook has been fitted onto it. And a person is hooked because something has caught them and will not let go — a show they cannot stop watching, or a drug their body keeps asking for.

「hooked」可以想成一個鉤子的畫面，而這個畫面同時有兩件事：一是它末端是彎的，二是一旦勾住了，東西就不容易脫開。hooked 的每個用法都落在這兩件事的其中一邊。鼻子、鳥喙、爪子叫 hooked，是因為彎。長桿、橫桿叫 hooked，是因為上面裝了鉤子。人被說 hooked，則是因為被某樣東西勾住了，走不開——可能是一部停不下來的劇，也可能是身體一直在要的東西。From the word’s history
Wiktionary gives hooked as hook + -ed. The suffix does double duty on nouns: 'having this thing' and 'caught by this thing', which is exactly where the two branches of the modern word come from.
根據 Wiktionary，hooked 就是 hook 加上 -ed。這個字尾加在名詞後面時本來就有兩種力道：一種是「帶有這個東西」，像 bearded；一種是「被這個東西弄成這樣」。今天 hooked 的兩條路，正好就是這兩種力道各走一邊。

被鉤住的人：放不開、走不掉
這一族把鉤子從東西身上移到人身上。鉤子本身看不見了，留下來的是鉤子的效果：勾住了，就脫不開。
