1. 1

    Squat has several everyday uses. As a verb, to squat means to lower your body by bending your knees, keeping your feet flat on the ground — like a squat exercise at the gym. It can also mean to live illegally in an empty building you don't own or rent (a 'squatter'). As an adjective, squat describes something short and wide, close to the ground. And in casual American English, 'squat' can mean 'nothing at all' — 'he did squat all day.'

    (動詞)蹲、深蹲;(動詞)非法佔住空屋;(形容詞)矮胖的;(俚語)什麼都沒有
