How to use "Stupefaction" in context?
Most of us have experienced at least a little bit of stupefaction at some point in our lives. The feeling of being taken aback and unable to comprehend what's happening around us. It can be incredibly jarring, and can make us feel things like confusion and surprise. There are a few different ways stupefaction can manifest, and each one can have a different impact on the person experiencing it.
In some cases, stupefaction may simply be a reaction to something unexpected. A loud noise, for example, might induce a sense of stupefaction in someone who's not used to loud environments.
