1. 1令人眼花撩亂地、令人困惑地

    When something happens bewilderingly, it makes you feel lost, usually because too many things are going on at the same time — too many choices, too many signs, too many people talking.

    When something happens bewilderingly當某件事令人眼花撩亂地發生, it makes you feel lost它會讓你感覺迷失, usually because too many things are going on at the same time通常是因為太多事同時在發生 — too many choices太多選擇, too many signs太多標示, too many people talking太多人在說話。

    You use it about the way a thing feels, not about a person: a shop can be bewilderingly full of brands; a city can be bewilderingly loud.

    You use it about the way a thing feels你是用它來形容一件事給人的感覺, not about a person而不是形容一個人: a shop can be bewilderingly full of brands一間店可以是令人眼花撩亂地擠滿品牌; a city can be bewilderingly loud一座城市可以是令人暈頭轉向地吵。

    It is a rather adverb. In everyday talk people more often say “so confusing” or “I didn’t know where to look.” Though actually, writers like it because one word carries both the confusion and the “too much” feeling.

    It is a rather bookish adverb這是個相當書面的副詞。In everyday talk在日常對話裡 people more often say "so confusing" or "I didn't know where to look."人們比較常說「so confusing(好亂)」或「I didn't know where to look(我都不知道該看哪裡)」。Though actually不過其實, writers like it作家喜歡用它 because one word carries both the confusion and the "too much" feeling因為一個字就同時帶出了困惑和『太多了』的感覺。

    You will meet it in reviews, news, and stories more than in the playground.
