解説 Definition

scarred は「傷ついた」「傷跡のある」という意味の形容詞です。体に傷跡が残っている場合だけでなく、つらい経験によって心に傷を負った状態にも使われます。

Scarred describes a person, body part, object, or surface that bears lasting marks from injury or damage. It can also describe someone who remains emotionally harmed by a painful or traumatic experience.

覚え方のコツ Memory Tip

scarred は scar に -ed を付ける際、短母音の後の語末 r を重ねた形で、発音は /skɑːrd/、-ed は /d/ です。「傷跡が残された」が核で、scarred hand は身体の傷、emotionally scarred は心の傷、a table scarred by knives は物の傷を表します。一時的な injured より、残る痕跡を意識しましょう。

Scarred comes from scar plus -ed. In spelling, the final r is doubled, and the ending is pronounced /d/ in /skɑːrd/. Keep the image of a lasting mark rather than a fresh injury. A scarred hand carries visible marks, a table can be scarred by knives or heat, and a person may be emotionally scarred by an accident. Injured often describes current physical harm, while scarred emphasizes the trace or lasting effect left afterward. The pattern scarred by introduces the cause, and emotionally scarred clearly signals the figurative psychological sense. These combinations connect its physical and emotional uses.

scarred の語源・成り立ち Etymology

scarred は scar「傷あと」に -ed がついた形です。scar は古フランス語経由で、さらにギリシャ語 eskhara「焼け跡のかさぶた」にさかのぼるため、傷が治ったあとに残る印という感覚がそのまま「傷ついた」に通じ、関連語に eschar があります。

Scarred is formed from scar and the suffix -ed, with the final r doubled in spelling. Scar entered English through French and is ultimately associated with Late Latin scara and Greek eskhara, a hearth or scab formed by burning. This history reflects the idea of a mark left after damaged tissue heals. English extended the physical sense to lasting damage on objects and then figuratively to enduring emotional harm. Eschar, a medical term for dead or burned tissue, is historically related.
