The past tense and past participle of 'bethump,' formed by adding the '-ed' suffix. It can function as an adjective when describing something that has undergone thorough thumping.
Past participles are one of English's greatest disguises—'bethumped' looks like an adjective describing a tired, worn-out object, but it's actually just the verb 'bethump' wearing different clothes. English lets us recycle the same word forms across different parts of speech constantly.
