adjective A2 property
1

covered with dust or powdery dirt

Having a lot of dry, fine dirt on it, or in the air around it.

รูปแบบการใช้: [something] is dusty / dusty [noun]
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners sometimes say *"full of dusts"* instead of *"dusty" or "full of dust". Use "dusty" to describe something that has a layer of dust on it: *"a dusty table," "dusty air."* Also, do not confuse the adjective "dusty" with the verb "to dust" (to remove dust).
คำพ้องความหมาย
dirty (More general; can include many kinds of dirt, not just dust.) | dust-covered (More explicit and slightly more formal, focuses only on dust on the surface.)
คำตรงข้าม
clean (Describes something with no dirt or dust on it.) | spotless (Stronger and more emphatic; completely free of dust or dirt.)

adjective B2 property
2

dull, dry, and uninteresting

Describes a subject, book, talk, etc. that is boring and not lively or fresh.

รูปแบบการใช้: dusty [topic/style/lecture]
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners may think this always means something is literally covered in dust. In this sense, "dusty" is figurative: it describes style or feeling, not physical dirt. If you mean there is real dust, mention the object: *"a dusty room," "a dusty book."*
คำพ้องความหมาย
dull (Very close in meaning; general word for not interesting.) | dry (Often used for writing or talks that are too serious and not engaging.)
คำตรงข้าม
lively (Emphasizes being full of energy and interest, the opposite of a "dusty" style.) | engaging (Focuses on holding the listener’s or reader’s attention.)

adjective B2 property
3

old-fashioned and not modern

Describes ideas, rules, or things that are very old-style and do not fit modern life.

รูปแบบการใช้: dusty [rules/image/tradition]
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners may confuse this sense with simply being physically dirty. Here, "dusty" is metaphorical: it means old-fashioned. If you want to talk about style or ideas, words like "old-fashioned" or "outdated" are usually clearer for learners.
คำพ้องความหมาย
old-fashioned (Very close in meaning; more common and neutral.) | outdated (Stresses that something is no longer suitable or useful today.)
คำตรงข้าม
modern (Stresses being current and suited to today’s world.) | progressive (Highlights being open to new ideas and change, opposite of "dusty" attitudes.)

adjective C1 property
4

soft muted color with gray

Describes a color that is not bright, looks soft, and has a little gray in it.

รูปแบบการใช้: dusty [color]
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners may think "dusty pink" means the dress is dirty. In fashion and design, "dusty" before a color usually describes the shade (soft, grayish), not actual dust. If you want to say something needs cleaning, use a different word order: *"a pink, dusty dress"* (first color, then condition).
คำพ้องความหมาย
muted (General word for colors that are soft and not bright; does not always suggest gray.) | soft (Very general; can describe gentle, not-strong colors.)
คำตรงข้าม
bright (Describes colors that are strong and intense, the opposite of "dusty" colors.) | vivid (Stresses very strong, clear color without gray.)

adjective slang C1 property
5

uncool, lame (slang)

Slang for a person or thing that is not cool, not stylish, or not good.

รูปแบบการใช้: [someone/something] is dusty
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners may confuse this slang meaning with the normal meaning "covered in dust." In slang, "dusty" is a judgment about style or social value, not physical cleanliness. This use is common in some online and youth communities but may sound rude or strange in formal situations.
คำพ้องความหมาย
lame (Very close in slang; informal term meaning not cool or not good.) | corny (Slang for something trying to be fun or romantic but is not cool.)
คำตรงข้าม
cool (Slang for fashionable, impressive, socially attractive.) | fire (Very slangy; means extremely good or impressive, opposite feeling of "dusty".)
