extremely beautiful or impressive

Very, very beautiful or amazing to see or experience.

الگوی کاربرد: [someone]/[something] is/looks stunning
اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes use "stunning" only for people, but it is also very common for places, clothes, performances, and other things (e.g., "a stunning view", "a stunning design"). Another mistake is saying *"very stunning"; native speakers usually say "absolutely/quite/really stunning" instead.
هم‌معنی‌ها
gorgeous (Very common for people and clothes; a bit warmer and more personal.) | breathtaking (Emphasizes the impact on your feelings, often for views or experiences.) | spectacular (Sounds slightly more formal and is often used for shows, events, and scenes.)
متضادها
ugly (Direct opposite when talking about physical appearance.) | unimpressive (Opposite when talking about general effect or quality, not just beauty.)

adjective B2 property
2

extremely surprising or shocking

Very surprising or shocking and often hard to believe.

الگوی کاربرد: a stunning [result/news/revelation/defeat]
اشتباه رایج:
Learners may confuse this meaning with the "very beautiful" meaning and describe people as "stunning" when they really want to say that the person is shocked (which would be "stunned"). For example, "She was stunning by the news" is wrong; it should be "She was stunned by the news" for the surprised feeling, or "She was stunning" for appearance.
هم‌معنی‌ها
shocking (Often stronger for negative situations; more focused on disturbance or upset.) | astonishing (Very close in meaning; slightly more formal and not always emotional.) | startling (Adds a feeling of being suddenly surprised or alarmed.)
متضادها
unsurprising (Describes results or news that do not surprise anyone.) | predictable (Opposite in the sense that it is expected rather than surprising.)
ترکیب‌های رایج
stunning revelation |stunning announcement |stunning news |stunning defeat |stunning victory |stunning upset

causing someone to be dazed or unconscious

Making a person weak, confused, or knocked out for a short time, usually by a hit or strong force.

الگوی کاربرد: a stunning [blow/punch/impact]
اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes mix this meaning with the emotional uses and think "stunning" always means "very beautiful" or "very surprising." In safety or sports contexts, a "stunning blow" is physical, not emotional. Also, some learners confuse "stunning" with the noun "stun gun" and treat it as a noun; here it is an adjective describing the effect.
هم‌معنی‌ها
dazing (Focuses on making someone feel confused or dizzy rather than fully unconscious.) | knockout (Common in boxing; often stronger, suggesting complete loss of consciousness.)
متضادها
gentle (A blow that is gentle does not cause confusion or unconsciousness.) | harmless (Suggests that the force does not injure or seriously affect the person.)
ترکیب‌های رایج
stunning blow |stunning punch |stunning impact |stunning force
موضوع‌ها
