Surface Forms

wacked positive

Morphology

wacked = whack (opaque) = whack + ed

The form is a regular past participle/adjectival -ed derivative of whack, but the slang meaning 'extremely tired' is not predictable from the base verb.

Etymology

Wacked comes from the verb whack, which means 'to hit'; imagine being knocked out or struck so you feel completely worn out. That's why wacked can mean 'extremely tired'.
