EN: sickly; prone to illness
That one friend who is always absent from the get-together because they have a fever, a cough, or some mysterious ailment. They're the human equivalent of a fragile phone screen—needs extra care. Their immune system is perpetually on vacation.
Often used to describe children or the elderly, but can apply to anyone.
