gone
Left the building
Gone is the past participle of go, used with auxiliary verbs: She has gone home.
It also functions as an adjective meaning departed, used up, or no longer present: The milk is gone, My headache is gone.
Someone far gone is in an advanced state—of illness, drunkenness, or obsession.
Gone can mark time elapsed: It was gone midnight when we left.
In slang, to be gone on someone is to be infatuated with them.
