Gob Smacking, or "Gobsmacked" is slang expression used in the UK
to indicate surprised, astonished. "Gob" is slang for one's mouth.
When a person is amazed or astonished, he might put the open palm
of his hand over his open (in astonishment) mouth, simulating a
"smack," hence, Gobsmacking. In a sentence: "When I found out I won
the lottery, I was gobsmacked."
