"stunod" meaning in All languages combined

See stunod on Wiktionary

Adjective [English]

IPA: /ˈstunɑd/ [US]
Etymology: Italian-American immigrant slang; dialectal and derived from Southern Italian languages. In standard Italian it would be Italian stonato (“out of tune”). However, in the first half of the 20th century, the largely Southern Italian emigrants to America did not speak the Florentine dialect that modern Standard Italian is based upon and instead used the Sicilian stunatu or the Neapolitan stunat'. The Italian-American meaning is nearly identical to the meaning in Sicilian and Neapolitan, though in Sicilian and Neapolitan stunatu and stuntat’ can also simply mean “out of tune” as well. Etymology templates: {{der|en|it|stonato||out of tune}} Italian stonato (“out of tune”), {{m|it|stunatu}} stunatu, {{m|nap|stunat'}} stunat' Head templates: {{en-adj|-}} stunod (not comparable)
  1. (slang) Stupid or crazy; out of touch with reality. Tags: not-comparable, slang Categories (topical): People Translations (stupid): tärähtänyt (Finnish)
