sodden
Heavy with water
Sodden means thoroughly soaked or saturated with liquid: sodden fields after the rain, clothes sodden with sweat.
The word suggests heaviness and unpleasantness—something sodden is waterlogged, not just wet.
Figuratively, sodden describes someone stupefied by alcohol: a sodden drunk slumped at the bar.
The word can also convey dullness or lethargy: a sodden mind.
