Uso & Matices
Often used for powerful emotional shocks ('stun with news'), or for physical effects (especially in sports/fights, 'stunned by a punch'). Common in news, informal, or dramatic language. Do not confuse with 'astonish' (mostly positive) – 'stun' may suggest being left speechless, shocked, or even physically affected.
