For words
How would you translate "for words" in a context like,
"Too confusing for words" "Too X for words" I could say "demasiado confuso como para expresarlo" or "demasiado confuso como para decirlo siquiera"... or... Any better ideas? "Demasiado [x] como para decirlo..." I see that Oxford gives, it was too funny for words fue graciosísimo; to be lost for words no encontrar* palabras, no saber* qué decir
