Thank you for submitting, @Primigenus ! One way we've handled this in the past is to create a "Related words" section, then broke down the "alternatives" section into noun/adjective, etc. Would you have capacity/be willing to open a PR for this sort of change? I would be happy to support.
@Primigenus : Would you be available to review my PR #435 ?
Both of these build on the ableism inherent in "dumb" We could make these definitions children of that word.
Some alternatives: astounded awestruck flabbergasted nonplussed
