beaten

'Beaten', out of context, can be translated into anything.
And also, the passive voice is not translated too well in Haitian Creole.

Beaten (as in punished) → bat, pini, disiplinen, kale, fwete
Beaten (as in defeated) → vannen, mete atè, fese atè, bat
Beaten (as in injured) → bat, frape, krabinen, fwete, sabote,, dechèpiye, kalote, matirize, etc..

And there's a lot more
