Fiends Meaning in English

word · lemma: fiend

释义

'Fiends' is the plural of 'fiend', meaning evil or cruel beings (like demons or monsters), or in very informal speech, can mean close friends or people obsessed with something.

用法与细微差别

Most commonly means monsters or evil beings. In very informal slang, 'fiends' can mean close friends or people extremely addicted to something (“music fiends”). The slang use is rare and mainly found in American English. Don't confuse with 'friends'—they are unrelated.
