Burned out, scorched, or consumed by fire; an extremely archaic term for something destroyed by burning.
From Latin 'exustus' (burned up), the past participle of 'exurere' (to burn out), from 'ex-' (completely) + 'urere' (to burn). This Latin root also appears in 'combustion' and 'ustulate.'
This word is so old it barely survives even in historical dictionaries, yet it captures a specific concept—not just burned, but burned out—that shows how precise medieval Latin vocabulary could be about destruction.
