Morphology
bummed = bum (semi-transparent) = bum + ed
Formed as the past-participial/adjectival '-ed' of the colloquial verb 'bum', but the base 'bum' has several other common senses (e.g., 'butt', 'loafer') that can confuse learners.
Etymology
Bummed comes from American slang like bum and bummer, words people used for a 'disappointment' or when something 'makes someone sad'. A helpful way to remember is to think of a 'bummer' — a bad thing that 'bums you out' — so if you are bummed, you feel sad or disappointed.
