喜樂美語
  1. 1/ˈtraʊmə/ · /ˈtrɔːmə/創傷（心理或生理上的）

    Trauma is a deeply painful and shocking experience that has a lasting effect on a person's mind — like living through an accident, violence, or great loss. It can also mean a serious physical injury to the body, especially the kind doctors deal with in a hospital's 'trauma center'. The adjective 'traumatic' describes an event that causes this kind of harm, and 'traumatized' describes a person deeply affected by it.
