- 1a/ˈʃætərd/ · /ˈʃætəd/deeply shocked and upset深受打擊的
Feeling deeply shocked and upset, usually because something very bad or very disappointing has just happened to you.
這個 shattered 借用了「玻璃被打碎」的畫面來形容心情:不是普通的難過,而是「整個人碎掉、撐不住了」。比 sad 或 disappointed 重得多,通常用在壞消息剛來的那一刻。這個用法放在 be 動詞後面,不放在名詞前面。

這是英式口語裡「累到不行」的說法,比 tired 重很多,接近中文的「累癱」「整個人被榨乾」。畫面可以想成人像玻璃一樣被敲碎、散成一地,站都站不起來。跟 exhausted 意思差不多,但 shattered 更口語、更朋友之間。
