Surface Forms

smashed positive

Morphology

smashed = smash (semi-transparent) = smash + ed

The adjectival sense 'very drunk' is a figurative extension of the past-participle meaning 'smashed' (broken or ruined), so the relation is noticeable but metaphorical.

Etymology

Smashed comes from the verb smash, which means 'to break' or hit something hard until it breaks. People used that image to say someone was 'broken' by drink, so to be smashed now means 'very drunk'.
