Picture something hanging in mid-air, halfway through a movement. It has not fallen and it has not arrived. Everything about it is still there, and it would carry on at once if someone let it down. That is the picture the two words make together: suspended is hanging, and animation is the old word for life and movement. So the whole thing means movement held up in the air rather than movement finished. Whether it is a frog under a stone or an office waiting on one decision, the picture does not change.

兩個意思吊住的東西不一樣：一個吊住的是身體的運作，一個吊住的是人和事情的進度。共同點是都還能再動起來。
noun · C1
A state in which a person or animal is not conscious and the body works extremely slowly, so that they seem almost dead, but can come back to normal life later when the conditions are right.
