CRUMPLED Meaning and Definition

  1. Crumpled is an adjective that describes something that is distorted, wrinkled, or crushed into a folded or crushed shape. The term is often used to depict the state of a piece of paper or fabric that has been squeezed, folded, or compressed in a way that creates wrinkles, creases, or folds.

    When an object is crumpled, it has lost its smooth and flat appearance, becoming irregular and uneven. This can occur as a result of physical force imposed on the object, such as when a paper is crushed in one's hand or when a fabric garment is tightly squeezed. Crumpled can also be the outcome of being stored or compressed in a confined space over time, causing the material to fold and create wrinkles.

    The term crumpled can be applied to various objects, from disposable items like paper, tissue, or aluminum foil, to more substantial materials like clothing, fabric, or even metal. When something is crumpled, it often indicates a loss of its original shape or form, and it may require efforts to straighten or smoothen it out.

    In a figurative sense, crumpled can also be used to describe someone's appearance or demeanor, suggesting a state of exhaustion, weariness, or defeat. In this context, the term implies a person's physical or emotional conditions that appear disheveled, disorganized, or dejected.
