Home › U › Used

A used item is one that is not new or a resource that has been partially or completely depleted. In some contexts, the word can be used as a synonym for "abused" or "exploited", especially when referring to people. When a person gives an item of some value that they have used to someone else, typically an acquaintance or family member, it is sometimes referred to as a "hand-me-down".Also, being used (with a soft S and D) to something is being accustomed to it.
