Hi, my friend says 'too phased' when she means 'worried' or 'bothered'... I've never heard of that ever. I checked the Longman Dictionary and Cambridge Dictionary but the meaning 'worried/bothered' was never included. I did some Google search and there were a few sentences from articles that came out which seemed to fit the meaning 'worried/bothered', therefore, it does exist. How come that meaning doesn't seem to be in any dictionary? Is it slang in any way? Is it UK/NZ slang?

Hi, Have a look at the spelling ' fazed' . It's somewhat slang-y still, in some people's opinion. Clive
