What does it mean to be hard-ridden?

Hard-ridden is an adjective used to describe something that is heavily burdened or oppressed. It can be used to describe a person, animal, or thing that is carrying a heavy load or facing a difficult situation.

For example, you might say "The farmer's horse was hard-ridden from the long days of plowing the fields" or "The worker was hard-ridden by the heavy workload and long hours."

In general, hard-ridden is not a commonly used word in modern English, and it may be more familiar to readers of classic literature or historical texts. However, it can still be useful for adding a touch of period flavor to your writing or for creating a sense of heaviness and burden.
