REBOUNDED Meaning and
Definition
-
The verb "rebounded" can have multiple meanings depending on the context in which it is used. One meaning of "rebounded" is the action of bouncing back or springing back after hitting a surface or object. In this sense, it refers to the way an object or a ball, for example, reacts when it hits something and then quickly returns to its original position. This can also be used metaphorically to describe a person's or a situation's ability to recover quickly from a setback or disappointment. For instance, when a team loses a game but then regains confidence and starts winning again, we can say that they "rebounded" from their loss.
Another meaning of "rebounded" is associated with romantic or emotional relationships.

Overall, "rebounded" typically refers to bouncing back physically or metaphorically, or starting a new relationship quickly after the end of a previous one.
