all washed up 彻底完蛋

大家都知道，wash就是洗东西的“洗”。但是，all washed up的意思是彻底完蛋，和干净不干净毫无关系。

例如：Did you hear that Gloria's marriage is all washed up?She found her husband was seeing another woman, so she packed up, took the kids and moved out. Now she's suing for divorce.

你听说了没有，格洛里亚的婚姻是彻底完蛋了。她发现她的丈夫有外遇，因此她收拾起自己的东西，带着孩子搬出去了。现在，她向法院申请离婚。

又如：That man over there used to be one of the best players in baseball. But then he started drinking, turned into an alcoholic, and just two years later he was all washed up.

那边那个人以前是最好的棒球运动员之一。但是，后来他开始喝酒，逐渐酗酒成习。这样，只过了两年，他的棒球生涯也就完蛋了。
