Etymology of BEDAZZLED

The word "Bedazzled" is derived from the combination of the prefix "be-" and the verb "dazzle".

The prefix "be-" is commonly used in English to intensify or give a sense of completeness to a verb. It can also indicate thoroughly or excessively. In this case, "be-" intensifies the action of dazzling.

The word "dazzle" comes from the Old English word "dæslian", which means to 'stupefy' or 'daze'. It further traces its origins to the Middle English word "daselen", meaning 'to render dim' or 'to lose one's vision temporarily.'

Over time, "dazzle" developed its modern meaning of 'to overpower with brightness or brilliance' or 'to impress or astonish with great skill or flair.
