minus-squarestatic09@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 个月前There’s also overwhelm as well! Cool thing about most prefixes in English is that they can be changed out for other prefixes or completely removed. Though, one wouldn’t quite hear somebody say antiwhelmed there’s still nothing against it.

minus-squarestatic09@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 个月前You’re free to be overwhelmed, whelmed, or underwhelmed in any country! It’s just uncommon to remove any prefix from whelm.
