“一贫如洗”，贫洗字面意思是用英语说穷得像用水洗过似的，什么都没有（so poor as if everything had been washed away）。贫洗形容十分贫穷，用英语说可以翻译为“be utterly destitute，贫洗poor as a church mouse或poor and 用英语说bare to the bones”。

例句：

他死时家里一贫如洗。贫洗

When he died,用英语说 his family was left completely destitute.

你知道我一贫如洗，没有家产。贫洗

You know how hard up I am,用英语说 with no property of my own.
