一道太強的光直接打在你眼睛上——車頭燈、雪地反光、有人拿手電筒照你的臉。那一瞬間你不是看不見「光」，而是除了那道光以外什麼都看不見了，得眨眼、得別過頭。重點在「強到讓你暫時失去正常的判斷」，而不是單純的亮。這個「被壓過去、當下反應不過來」的感覺，就是這個字走到抽象用法時帶著的東西。From the word’s history
From daze + the frequentative ending -le: literally 'to daze repeatedly' — a light that keeps stunning the eye.
這個字由 daze（使發愣、使昏亂）加上表示反覆動作的字尾 -le 組成，字面上是「一再地使人發愣」。這條線索很有用：dazzle 的核心從來不是「亮」，而是 daze——被弄得一時反應不過來。強光只是造成這種狀態最常見的原因，所以「被光晃到」和「被才華震住」其實是同一件事的兩種來源。
