Describing land that is soft, wet and often partly under water — the kind of ground where your foot sinks and water comes up around it. A swamp is that kind of wet land, often with trees growing in it, and 'swampy' is the adjective: swampy ground, a swampy field, swampy forest.

Describing land that is soft, wet and often partly under water用來形容鬆軟、潮濕、常常有一部分泡在水裡的土地 — the kind of ground where your foot sinks and water comes up around it就是那種你的腳一踩下去會陷進去、水還會冒上來的地面。 A swamp is that kind of wet landswamp（沼澤）指的就是這種濕地, often with trees growing in it裡面常常還長著樹, and 'swampy' is the adjective而 swampy 就是它的形容詞: swampy ground, a swampy field, swampy forest像 swampy ground（泥濘的地）、a swampy field（泥濘的田）、swampy forest（泥濘的森林）。

You use it both for real swamps and, more loosely, for any ground that is too wet — a garden after a week of rain can be described as swampy, even though nobody would call it a swamp. It nearly always sounds unpleasant: swampy ground is hard to walk on, bad for building, full of mosquitoes.

You use it both for real swamps這個字既可以用在真正的沼澤上 and, more loosely, for any ground that is too wet也可以比較寬鬆地用在任何太濕的地面 — a garden after a week of rain can be described as swampy下了一星期雨後的花園就可以說是 swampy, even though nobody would call it a swamp即使沒有人會把它叫做 swamp。 It nearly always sounds unpleasant這個字聽起來幾乎都是負面的: swampy ground is hard to walk on泥濘的地不好走, bad for building不適合蓋房子, full of mosquitoes而且蚊子很多。

People also stretch the word to how things feel: swampy air or swampy weather means hot, heavy and very humid — a Taiwan summer afternoon is swampy. Sometimes a person says their shirt or their shoes feel swampy, meaning damp and sticky with sweat.
