SLUMPED Meaning and Definition

  1. Slumped is a verb that describes the act of sinking, falling, or collapsing heavily and ungracefully into a lower or more relaxed position or posture. It often implies a loss of energy or physical strength, causing the body to become limp or droopy. When someone is slumped, their body may curl or hunch forward, and their muscles may appear slack or loose.

    Emotionally, slumped can also refer to a state of dejection, exhaustion, or despondency. It suggests a feeling of defeat or sadness, as if a person has lost their usual vigor or enthusiasm. In this context, slumped may also indicate a decline in motivation or productivity, as an individual may struggle to maintain previous levels of engagement or focus.

Similarly, an individual who has received disappointing news may slump, expressing their emotional distress through their physical posture. Additionally, slumping can occur during moments of physical pain or discomfort when the body naturally attempts to alleviate the strain.

    Overall, slumped encompasses both physical and emotional states of a lowered, drooping, or collapsed posture, which can occur due to fatigue, sadness, or other factors affecting a person's well-being.
