overheated
Dangerously warmed up
Overheated describes something that has become too hot—an overheated engine, an overheated room.
The word extends to excess intensity or agitation: an overheated debate, overheated rhetoric.
In economics, an overheated economy or market is growing unsustainably fast, risking inflation or collapse.
A person who is overheated may be physically too warm or emotionally worked up.
