Mushed Meaning in English
word · lemma: mush
Definition
Turned into a soft, wet, or pulpy mass by pressing, squashing, or mixing; usually refers to food or something that has lost its shape because it’s been crushed.
Usage & Nuances
Informal and mostly used to describe food (e.g., potatoes, bananas), or soft objects that have lost shape. Rare as a verb; 'mashed' is more common. Do not confuse with 'mashed' (more standard); 'mushed' is softer and can sound a bit childish or descriptive.
