German

glue

Glued means stuck or attached with some kind of sticky substance.

When we say something is glued together, we usually mean that it's held firmly in place by a strong adhesive. We might use glue to fix a broken toy, attach a piece of paper to another one, or even stick a picture to the wall. You can imagine someone using a bottle of glue and applying it carefully to make sure things stay stuck where they are.
