| Adj. | 1. | discombobulated - having self-possession upset; thrown into confusion; "the hecklers pelted the discombobulated speaker with anything that came to hand"; "looked at each other dumbly, quite disconcerted"- G.B.Shaw |
I think this is a pretty practical word and I think it's also an agreeable word since it means pretty much what you might expect it to mean if you weren't familiar with it and had to take a stab at its meaning (not at all like supercilious). I thought it was a pretty common word but several people I've mentioned it to over the past week or two aren't familiar with it. I tend to use it quite a bit since I often find myself rather discombobulated , especially on Monday's.
