lightedadjective

thắp sáng

/ˈlaɪtɪd//ˈlaɪtɪd/

"Lighted" originates from the Old English word "lihtan," meaning "to shine" or "to make light." This verb developed into "lighten" in Middle English, which then took on the meaning of "to illuminate." "Lighted" emerged as the past participle of "lighten," indicating a state of being illuminated. The "-ed" ending signifies a past action or state, resulting in the word "lighted" becoming a synonym for "lit" and signifying something illuminated.
