覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
shaved は shave「剃る」の過去形・過去分詞で、形容詞では毛を取り除いた状態です。原形末尾の e を残して -d だけを加え、-ed は /d/ と発音します。a shaved head、a shaved face、a shaved area のまとまりで覚え、clean-shaven が特に「ひげをきれいに剃った顔」を表す点も押さえましょう。
Link “shaved” directly to the base verb “shave.” Because “shave” already ends in silent e, only -d is added, and the ending is pronounced /d/. Use the adjective in concrete combinations such as “a shaved head,” “a shaved face,” and “the shaved area.” These phrases describe the resulting state after hair has been removed close to the skin. “Clean-shaven” is especially common for a face without beard growth. Keep “shaved” distinct from “cut” or “trimmed,” which may leave some hair rather than removing it at skin level.

shaved の語源・成り立ち Etymology
shaved は shave の過去分詞・形容詞形で、-ed は『された状態』を示す。shave は古英語 sceafan、さらにゲルマン祖語 *skabanan『削る・こする』に由来し、『毛を削り取った』が語感の核。関連語に shave, shaver。
“Shaved” is the regular past and past-participle form of “shave,” also used adjectivally for the resulting condition. “Shave” descends from Old English sceafan, meaning “to scrape, shave, or cut,” and has relatives in other Germanic languages. Its deeper Germanic history centers on scraping or removing material from a surface. The modern sense specializes this action as cutting hair very close to the skin, usually with a razor.
