Struck or hit; bumped; afflicted or damaged from impact.
Past tense or past participle of 'clour,' using the '-ed' suffix (Old English '-ede'). When applied as an adjective, it describes something that has experienced the action of striking or colliding.
The '-ed' suffix performs double duty in English—it marks both past tense ('he cloured the wall') and adjectives ('a cloured surface')—which sometimes creates ambiguity but also gives English remarkable flexibility in converting actions into descriptions of state.
