very dirty; covered with dirt
Very, very dirty, so that it looks or feels bad or unhealthy.
用法模式：
[something] is filthy
常见错误：
Learners sometimes use "filthy" when they only mean "a bit dirty". "Filthy" is very strong and suggests something is so dirty that it is unpleasant or even disgusting. For normal, everyday dirt, "dirty" is more natural.

morally disgusting or sexually obscene
Very bad or dirty in a moral way, especially about sex or rude words and pictures.
用法模式：
[someone]/[something] is filthy
常见错误：
Learners sometimes confuse this meaning with the physical "dirty" sense and say things like "a filthy floor" when they mean "morally bad". Also, some learners don't realize how strong and negative this word is in this sense; using it about a person can sound very insulting.
近义词
obscene (Focuses on being sexually offensive or shocking; slightly more formal than "filthy".)
反义词
decent (Describes language or behavior that follows social and moral rules, not rude or offensive.)

Very, very unpleasant or nasty, for example weather, a smell, a taste, or the way someone behaves or feels.
用法模式：
[something/someone] is in a filthy [state/mood]
常见错误：
Learners sometimes use "filthy" here where a softer word like "bad" or "unpleasant" would be more natural, especially in formal writing. "Filthy" is very strong and sounds quite emotional and informal.
近义词
disgusting (A strong general word for very unpleasant; does not carry the extra informal, slangy feel that "filthy" can have.)
反义词
pleasant (Describes something that feels nice or enjoyable, the opposite of filthy in this sense.)

impressively good (slang)
(Slang) Very, very good or cool in a strong way, for example a move in sport or a part of a song.
用法模式：
filthy [shot/move/beat/etc.]
常见错误：
Learners often assume this slang use is negative because the basic meaning of "filthy" is bad. In some youth and sports slang, however, "filthy" is a strong compliment meaning very impressive or cool. It should only be used in informal situations.
近义词
sick (Slang meaning very impressive or cool; used in similar contexts to this sense of "filthy".)
反义词
lame (Slang for boring, weak, or unimpressive, the opposite of this positive slang sense of "filthy".)
