用法筆記

Informal slang, often with negative connotations when describing the effect of illegal drugs. The substance that causes the state is typically introduced with the preposition 'on' (e.g., 'jacked on caffeine'). This sense is rarer than the 'muscular' sense and may not be understood by all English speakers.

常見錯誤

❌I am so jacked from my workout' (meaning energetic, not muscular).
✅I am so jacked from my workout' (if you mean muscular).
💡Be careful: 'jacked from working out' strongly suggests the muscular sense, not the drug sense. To talk about energy from exercise, use 'pumped' or 'energised' instead.
