Etymology

The word 'daze' is believed to have originated from the Old English word 'dรฆge', meaning 'to confuse or overwhelm'. It has been used since the 15th century to describe a state of uncertainty or bewilderment. Over time, the term evolved to encompass both physical and emotional forms of disorientation. The '-ing' addition suggests an ongoing action or effect, emphasizing the impact that the act of dazzling has on an individual. The association with light and shock has strengthened its usage in modern language, illustrating moments of surprise and awe.
