1. 1被遺忘、湮滅、渾然不覺的狀態

    Oblivion is the state of being completely forgotten, as if you never existed or mattered at all — 'the band into oblivion' means people simply stopped remembering them. It can also mean total unconsciousness or nothingness, a total blank — 'he drank himself into oblivion' means he drank until he was completely unaware of everything around him. It's a strong, rather dramatic word, mostly used in writing or serious speech rather than in small talk.
