STOOPED Meaning and
Definition
-
Stooped is an adjective describing the physical posture of a person or object that is in a bent or hunched position, typically resulting from age, weakness or fatigue. When someone is stooped, their upper body inclines forward and their back curves, often causing their shoulders and head to droop or lean forward as well. This bent or hunched position can take a toll on the overall stature and appearance of an individual, sometimes leading to a characteristic rounded or slouched shape. Stooped posture may be temporary or permanent and can vary in severity.
This term can also be used to describe objects or structures that appear to be bent, bowed, or slanted due to pressure or external forces. For instance, a stooped tree might have a bowed or crooked trunk as a result of wind or other factors. Similarly, a stooped building could have a sagging or curved roof due to structural weaknesses or aging.
Metaphorically, "stooped" can describe a person's moral or ethical state, suggesting that the individual has lowered themselves from a higher standard or position. This usage connotes a sense of debasement or degradation, implying a disgraceful or dishonorable status.
Overall, stooped refers to a physical or metaphorical downward inclination, whether in terms of posture, structure, or moral standing.
