- 1失修、年久失修
Buildings, roads, machines, parks: if they are in disrepair, they have gone bad because nobody looked after them — paint peeling, holes, rust, weeds in the cracks. The usual pattern is fall into disrepair or be in a state of disrepair. It is about neglect over time, not one accident. You would not say a person is in disrepair, and you would not use it for a phone that broke this morning. The word sits in news, reports, and careful speech more than in casual chat, where people say run-down or falling apart.
