人身上滿出來的悲傷
這一支最貼近字面：容器就是人，裝的就是悲傷本身。
adjective · C1
Full of sadness, in a way that other people can see or hear. It is used mainly in stories, songs and older writing.
悲傷的；哀戚的
核心畫面
One way to hold this word: something is filled right up with woe. Woe is old, heavy sadness, and the ending -ful means the thing is full of it. So the picture can be a container brimming over with sorrow. Sometimes the container is a person, and the sorrow shows in the eyes and the voice. Sometimes the container is a situation, and what brims over is not tears but the feeling that this is bad enough to make you sigh.
可以想成：這個東西「裝滿了 woe」。woe 是很沉、很舊的那種悲傷或災禍，-ful 則是「滿是…的」。所以核心畫面…更多收起
可以想成：這個東西「裝滿了 woe」。woe 是很沉、很舊的那種悲傷或災禍，-ful 則是「滿是…的」。所以核心畫面比較像一個盛滿悲傷、快要溢出來的容器。裝著悲傷的如果是人，悲傷就從眼神和聲音漏出來。裝著悲傷的如果是一件事，漏出來的不是眼淚，而是「糟到讓人嘆氣」的那種感覺。From the word’s history
Middle English woful, from woe plus -ful, literally 'full of woe'.
中古英語寫作 woful，由 woe（悲傷、災禍）加 -ful（滿是…的）組成，字面就是「滿是悲傷的」。
