My word of the day is befuddled, and it has two key meanings. The first one is confused: He was befuddled by the sign. The second one relates to being disoriented because of drinking too much: She was too befuddled to drive herself home.
I like this word because it sounds like what it describes. Also, it works the same way as other adjectives with the -ed ending: You are befuddled and the situation or cause is befuddling. For example: The visitors' sign was befuddling and he didn't know which way to go.
