I'm in two minds on this entry, there are far more うっとりする web hits than うっとりさせる but on the other hand you could make the case that the meaning of うっとりさせる might not be that obvious just given the うっとり entry. |
| Name | Paul Blay |
| Submission Type | amend |
| Editorial Comment | Eijiro offers a perspective. It has heaps of hits for うっとりさせる; most as noun-modifiers. It's similar with うっとりする, but that is more clearly passive. Perhaps I'll extend the うっとり entry for the vs case. |
| Current Entry | うっとり /(n,vs,adv) abstractedly/absentmindedly/absorbedly/in a trance/ |
| Headword 1 | うっとり |
| Part-of-speech | n,vs,adv |
| English 1 | abstractedly |
| English 2 | absentmindedly |
| English 3 | absorbedly |
| English 4 | in a trance |
| Comment | The gloss here doesn't really seem to capture the 'charmed by/fascinated with/enchanted by' sense which is predominant in the Tanaka examples for this word. The handout I have here defines うっとり as "a drunken-like pleasant feeling caused by seeing or hearing something beautiful", but that's a bit unwieldy. Sanseido has "be fascinated (by/with)", and the ALC site includes a pile of things like "be carried away by/enraptured by/mesmerized by".
