Winded means you cannot breathe easily for a short timewinded 的意思是你有一小段時間不能順利呼吸，usually because your breath has been knocked out of you or used up通常是因為你的氣被撞出去了，或是用完了。Two situations bring it up有兩種情況會用到這個字。

The first is being hit: a ball, an elbow, or the ground hits you in the stomach, and suddenly you cannot pull air in at all. It is frightening the first time, because for a few seconds your body simply will not take a breath, but it passes by itself.

The first is being hit第一種是被撞到：a ball, an elbow, or the ground hits you in the stomach一顆球、一個手肘，或是地面撞到你的肚子，and suddenly you cannot pull air in at all你突然完全吸不進空氣。It is frightening the first time第一次遇到會很嚇人，because for a few seconds your body simply will not take a breath因為有幾秒鐘你的身體就是吸不到氣，but it passes by itself但它會自己過去。

The second is hard exercise: you run up six floors of stairs and arrive at the top gasping, and you say you are winded. It is an adjective here, and you meet it as 'be winded' or 'get winded' — 'I was winded', 'he got winded', or 'a winded runner'.

The second is hard exercise第二種是激烈運動：you run up six floors of stairs and arrive at the top gasping你爬了六層樓梯，到頂端時上氣不接下氣，and you say you are winded這時候你就說你 winded 了。It is an adjective here這裡它是形容詞，and you meet it as 'be winded' or 'get winded'常見的用法是 'be winded' 或 'get winded'——'I was winded', 'he got winded', or 'a winded runner'.'I was winded'、'he got winded'，或 'a winded runner'（喘不過氣的跑者）。

There is also the verb 'wind' behind it, said with the vowel of 'find' when it means this: 'the punch winded him'. That verb is not common in everyday talk; the past form 'winded' is what people actually say.

There is also the verb 'wind' behind it這個字背後還有一個動詞 'wind'，said with the vowel of 'find' when it means this用這個意思時發音跟 'find' 的母音一樣：'the punch winded him'.例如 'the punch winded him'（那一拳把他打得喘不過氣）。That verb is not common in everyday talk這個動詞在日常對話裡不常見；the past form 'winded' is what people actually say大家實際上講的是過去式 'winded'。

Note that being winded is short and physical. It is not the same as being unfit or tired all over — you can be winded for thirty seconds and then be completely fine.

Note that being winded is short and physical要注意 winded 是短暫又生理性的。It is not the same as being unfit or tired all over它跟體力不好或全身疲累不一樣——you can be winded for thirty seconds and then be completely fine你可以喘不過氣三十秒之後就完全沒事。

A quite separate word is also spelled 'winded': 'the road winded through the hills' (though 'wound' is the normal past form there). Same letters, different word entirely.
