- 1(俚語)爛醉、醉茫茫、喝掛了
Smashed means very drunk — so drunk you are not really in control any more. It is slang, and it is strong: not 'a bit tipsy' but properly, obviously drunk. It can also describe someone in that state from a drug. Young people say it most, and it belongs with friends, not with your boss or your teacher's family. It normally comes after be or get: 'I was smashed', 'we got smashed on Saturday'. It does not usually go before a noun — 'a smashed man' sounds odd; people say 'he was smashed'. English has a whole shelf of these words that literally mean 'broken' and then mean 'drunk': , wasted, , . Smashed sits comfortably among them. Remember the word has other, ordinary uses too — smashed windows, smashed potatoes — and only the person-as-subject use means drunk.
From the word’s history
From smash + -ed.
由 smash「打碎」加 -ed 組成。
