You can think of wasted as one picture: something went out, and nothing came back. Hours, money, food, a whole trip, even the flesh and strength of a body — it was used up, and there is nothing left to show for it. Every use of the word is that same empty hand, pointed at a different thing.

wasted 可以想成一個畫面:東西出去了,卻沒有換回任何東西。時間花了、錢付了、路跑了,結果手上是空的。這個「被用光、只剩空殼」的感覺,可以幫你把它幾種用法串起來。從白花的一個下午,到被病痛消耗掉的身體,再到口語裡整個人被掏空的狀態,指的都是同一件事,只是被指著的東西不一樣。
