Significado: Looking exhausted, worn out, or rough; having been through a lot.

看起来精疲力竭、疲惫不堪、憔悴的；经历了很多磨难。

Con aspecto agotado, desgastado o deteriorado; haber pasado por mucho.

This expression comes from horse care — a horse that's been ridden hard and put in the stable still sweaty (not cooled down and groomed) will look terrible and feel awful. Applied to people, it means someone looks extremely tired, aged, or beaten down by life.

这个表达源于马匹护理——一匹被猛骑后没有冷却和梳理就直接关进马厩的马（还一身汗），看起来会很糟糕，感觉也很难受。用在人身上，意思是某人看起来极度疲惫、显老或被生活折磨得不成样子。

Esta expresión proviene del cuidado de los caballos: un caballo que ha sido montado con dureza y guardado en el establo aún sudoroso (sin enfriarlo ni asearlo) tendrá un aspecto terrible y se sentirá fatal. Aplicado a personas, significa que alguien parece extremadamente cansado, envejecido o maltratado por la vida.

この表現は馬の世話に由来する——激しく乗られた馬を、クールダウンもブラッシングもせずに汗だくのまま馬小屋に入れると、見た目もひどく体調も悪くなる。人に使う場合は、極度に疲れた、老けた、人生に打ちのめされた様子を意味する。

이 표현은 말 관리에서 유래했다. 거칠게 타고 나서 식히거나 손질도 안 하고 땀 범벅인 채로 마구간에 넣어버린 말은 상태가 엉망이 된다. 사람에게 적용하면, 극도로 피곤하거나, 늙어 보이거나, 인생에 시달린 사람을 가리킨다.
