의미
We can describe the condition someone or something is in at a particular moment. This may be a temporary condition or one left by an earlier event. Languages use adjectives, verbs, or phrases, and some have no special word forms for states. Unlike Qualities, State words draws attention to the condition at that moment rather than a general feature.
