喜樂美語

You can think of a piece of wire that someone has bent and turned again and again: it is still the same wire, but it no longer runs straight, and it will not go back to the shape it started with. Twisted describes that state — something that has been turned out of its original line and stayed that way.

可以想成一段被人反覆折彎、轉了又轉的鐵絲：東西還是那個東西，但已經不直了，也回不去原本的形狀。twisted 描述的就是這種狀態——被扭離了原來的走向，而且就這樣定住了。
