单词 pwned
释义

pwned

UK /pəʊnd/

DEFINITIONS1
  1. 1
    very easily defeated, especially in a humiliating way

    You just got pwned!

    This meaning is based on one submitted to the Open Dictionary by: Kerry from United Kingdom on 14/08/2015
    Synonyms and related words

    To be defeated in a game, competition or argument

    Featured as a BuzzWord!

    There are various theories about the etymology of pwned. One of the more popular accounts is that it originated in the online computer game World of Warcraft, where a map designer misspelt owned (where own was intended to be used in the sense of ‘conquer’ or ‘dominate’). When the computer beat a player, a message along the lines of: X has been owned should have been displayed. Instead, it said: X has been pwned. A related, and perhaps more convincing theory, is that pwned derives from a simple keyboard error, p being next to o on a standard QWERTY keyboard. When players want to say owned, they regularly mistype it as pwned – so much so that the latter has become an accepted (and ‘cool’, so therefore even more popular) alternative in the gaming fraternity.
