benommen

== German == === Pronunciation === === Etymology 1 === ==== Participle ==== benommen past participle of benehmen === Etymology 2 === From etymology 1 specifically in the now archaic sense of "to take away", probably from the idea of being "bereft of one's senses". The past participle being applied to the person and not to what was taken is unusual, but historically there was also a usage of the verb with the person as the accusative object and that which was taken as a genitive object, as in (and perhaps influenced by) berauben. ==== Adjective ==== benommen (strong nominative masculine singular benommener, comparative benommener, superlative am benommensten) dazed; numb ===== Conjugation ===== ===== Derived terms ===== Benommenheit ==== References ==== Wolfgang Pfeifer, editor (1993), “benommen”, in Etymologisches Wörterbuch des Deutschen (in German), 2nd edition, Berlin: Akademie-Verlag, →ISBN Kluge, Friedrich (1989), “benommen”, in Etymologisches Wörterbuch der deutschen Sprache [Etymological Dictionary of the German Language] (in German), 22nd edition, Berlin: Walter de Gruyter, →ISBN “benehmen” in Deutsches Wörterbuch von Jacob und Wilhelm Grimm, 16 vols., Leipzig 1854–1961. === Further reading === “benommen” in Digitales Wörterbuch der deutschen Sprache “benommen” in Uni Leipzig: Wortschatz-Lexikon
