- Numbed — A regional or archaic phonetic variant of the adjective 'amorțit'; temporarily lacking physical sensitivity, tactile reaction capacity, and muscular mobility due to cold or prolonged mechanical pressure on a peripheral nerve pathway. Figuratively, it describes a torpid, energy-less person or an activity in stagnation.
