Best Answer

'Gadzooks' is generally used as in conveying surprise or shock. For example, if you and a friend were to witness something of surprise, (for instance, say, a lion running through the downtown section of a major city), you could turn to your friend and say, "Gadzooks! Did you see that?" The term is simply used to reflect the surprise you experience.

What does zounds mean from shakespeare?

The origin is "By God's wounds" meaning Christ's stigmata (wounds from being crucified), shortened to "His wounds" and shortened still to 's wounds, shortened again to zounds. It's an exclamation; today you might say "Gadzooks" or "Jesus Christ!" or "Holy smokes." Or if you were saying it more straightforwardly, it might mean also "I swear" as in "believe me" as in "I swear on this bible" or "I swear on my mothers grave" or "I swear on God's wounds" or something similarly sacred. Now don't ask me where "Gadzooks" comes from. (Actually, it's from "God's hooks", the nails which fastened Jesus to the cross)
