Definition
-
Stupefying is an adjective that refers to something that has the ability to completely astonish, bewilder, or leave one in a state of utter disbelief or shock. It is often used to describe an experience, event, or occurrence that is extremely surprising, overwhelming, or mind-boggling.
When something is stupefying, it has the power to render a person speechless or momentarily paralyzed as their mind struggles to comprehend what they have witnessed or experienced. It can completely overwhelm one's thoughts, leaving them unable to think clearly or articulate their feelings or thoughts.
Stupefying can also have a negative connotation, describing something that is extremely boring, monotonous, or uninteresting to the point of causing mental numbness or a dulling of the senses. This can result in a feeling of dullness or mental sluggishness, as if one's mind has been temporarily switched off or put into a state of hibernation.
Overall, stupefying implies a strong emotional impact or cognitive overload, either due to an extraordinary positive or negative occurrence. It is characterized by the ability to render a person momentarily speechless, overwhelmed, or mentally inactive.

Etymology of STUPEFYING
The word "stupefying" originated from the combination of two Latin words: "stupere" and "facere".
1. "Stupere" means "to be stunned or amazed". It can also imply being dumbfounded or bewildered by something.
2. "Facere" means "to make or to do". When combined with "stupere", it forms "stupefacere", which literally translates to "to make or cause stupor".
Over time, "stupefacere" evolved into "stupefy" in Middle English, and eventually, the adjective form "stupefying" emerged to describe something that causes astonishment, bewilderment, or overwhelming surprise.
