Comment		"besoffen" bezieht sich nur auf Alkohol, "fucked up" neben Alkohol auch noch auf Drogen und fast alles denkbare sonst. Ähnlich im Deutschen: "fertig" ("der war so fertig, wir haben ihn ins Krankenhaus gebracht"). "fertig sein" mit "being drunk" zu übersetzen ist aber doch eher waghalsig.

Context/ examples		LEO: fucked up [vulg.] --- am Arsch [vulg.] fucked up [vulg.] --- kaputt Adj.
Comment		Unterstuetzt. Die "fertig"-Bedeutung ist bereits im LEO. Mir waere im D kein einzelner Ausdruck bekannt, der sowohl betrunken als auch "auf Drogen" beschreibt, daher waere zumindest fuer die Teilbedeutung "besoffen" am besten. Passt auch mit der Sprachebene.

Comment		Or as many service men in WWII used to say "I'm fed up, fucked up and far from home."

Comment		Leo sagt "am Arsch" - müßte das nicht "im Arsch" sein?

#6	Author	Mausling -unplugged-	23 Mar 08, 00:21
Comment		Ich kenne beide Formen, aber auch mir ist "im Arsch" gelaeufiger.

Comment		It can be added as vulgar, fine, but it must be marked AE - in BE "fucked up" often means someone is mentally ill/with serious underlying problems i.e. nothing to do with alcohol

Context/ examples		fucked up taboo spoken 1 very unhappy and confused, so that you cannot control your life properly [↪ messed up]: • After three years with Johnny, I was completely fucked up. 2 also fucked completely broken or in a very bad condition: • These speakers are fucked up. 3 American English having drunk too much alcohol or taken illegal drugs http://www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/fucked-up
Comment		I agree with J UK about marking this meaning of "fucked up" as AE.

Comment		I agree that it has multiple meanings. But "really drunk (or high from drugs)" is definitely one familiar meaning. - Remember that guy we met at the disco? - Yeah, he was cute, but he seemed pretty fucked up.

#11	Author	J UK	27 Apr 10, 09:13
Comment		@10 - lol I would most definitely have understood that as "he was nice but he seemed a bit mental/seemed to have serious issues" or an equivalent and not that he'd been drunk until reading this thread! It's always interesting to learn something new!

Comment		Wenn man alle Adjektive und Wendungen in Leo auflisten wollte, die auch als Euphemismus für "betrunken" gebraucht werden, würde man ja nie mehr fertig! Siehe: http://www.listology.com/list/synonyms-word-drunk Und das ist nur die Spitze vom Eisberg.
