lived
Had a pulse
Lived is the past tense of live, but it also functions as an adjective meaning experienced firsthand: lived experience, lived reality.
This adjective use emphasizes direct, personal knowledge rather than theoretical understanding—what someone has actually gone through rather than merely studied or observed.
