The word focused means nothing in latin

The word focus in latin is a fireplace or a hearth and also through metonymy could refer to the home, house or the family, its plural foci is used in our everyday math and science to denote a plural of the English focus but its latin meaning is only as a plural of its intent, focus was also sometimes used to reference a funeral pyre or an altar fire

To say that someone was or is focused in latin one would find its meaning in several words

'(ex) destinato', [intentionally]

'animi', [resolve or intention]

'absorbeo', [to swallow or gulp down; hence to carry away or engross]

'sepultus' [buried, sunk or immersed].
