    DefinitionShort: a state of intense amazement, to the point of being beside oneself with astonishment
    Glosses: ['amazement', 'astonishment']
    Comments: In many languages it is simply impossible to speak of ‘being beside oneself with astonishment’ or ‘having astonishment seize someone.’ Though such expressions may seem quite appropriate in English, literal renderings of such statements may be almost totally meaningless in other languages. In {S:04100504200030}, for example, one may readily translate ‘they were extremely astonished’ or in {S:04200502600004}, ‘they were all very much astonished.’|In a number of languages, of course, astonishment is expressed in an idiomatic manner, for example, ‘they had to look three times’ or ‘they looked but they couldn’t believe.’
