Unable to move, escape, continue, or be removed from a fixed position.
A car can get stuck in deep mud, a zipper can get stuck halfway, and a student can feel stuck on a difficult question, all sharing the same basic idea of being unable to go forward.

People also describe themselves as stuck when they feel unable to change an unhappy situation, such as being stuck in a job they dislike. The informal phrase to get stuck in means to begin a task with real energy and enthusiasm.
