Flummox: v. tr. cooloq. - bewilder, disconcert, confound, confuse, baffle, perplex, stump.
(pronounced: flumucks) (funky little dictionary symbols don't translate here!)
A curious word, but useful, particularly when describing the difficulty our current President has with his international dealings. To whit:
"Vladimir Putin found it ridiculously easy to flummox the US President. Any discussion of matters beyond baseball left the poor fellow wearing a puzzled and lost expression."
