Gobsmacking nghĩa là rất đỗi ngạc nhiên hay choáng váng, kinh ngạc (extremely surprised or shocked; astounded).
Ví dụ
The most gobsmacking part of this Rolling Stone reporting debacle (thất bại) continues to be that no one talked to Jackie's friends.
Oh, the luck of the Irish. Doolin, a pot o’ gold, was the final stop on my Emerald Isle odyssey (cuộc phiêu lưu), a gobsmacking montage (sự dựng phim) of fairy-tale castles, bleating sheep, paint-box colored villages, endless Kelly-green swaths and craggy (lởm chởm đá) sea-swept coast.
Imagine owing up to $600,000 in penalties on, say, a $20,000 bank account simply because you didn't report it to the IRS. It sounds unbelievable. But such a gobsmacking penalty is possible if your account has been held overseas at a non-U.S. financial institution for years and you knowingly never disclosed it to the U.S. government.
