flat footed的用法详解
Flat-footed has a few different meanings and can be used in multiple contexts.
1. Literally, flat-footed can refer to having a flat foot, or having the bottom or sole of one or both feet completely or almost completely touching the ground.
2. It can refer to lack of speed or agility in one’s physical movements, or to being awkward or clumsy.
3. It is also commonly used to describe a person who is slow in perceiving or understanding something. For example, someone might be said to be “flat-footed” if they don’t follow a joke or are slow to pick up on a certain concept or idea.
4. In some contexts, flat-footed can also mean being unprepared for something or taken by surprise. For example, if a surprise exam is announced in class, someone might comment, “We were all caught flat-footed by that.”
5. In a more negative and less literal sense, flat-footed can also mean being dull or unimaginative, or lacking fire or creativity. For example, someone might say, “His latest article was so flat-footed – it was just a rehash of things we’d all heard before.”
