Phenomenal! The Small Book of Big Words Jonathan Meres
DISCOMBOBULATED
Pronounced ~ dis-com-bob-u-lated.
Means ~ thrown into confusion.
As in ~ the lion is discombobulated by the skateboarding wildebeest.
And ~ my parents are discombobulated when I suddenly start speaking Swedish.*
A bit like ~ befuddled, bamboozled.
Don't confuse with ~ anything.
If you like this word, try ~ nincompoop.
* This won't make any sense if you are actually Swedish.
