I am looking for a word to express extreme suprise. What would be the word that accurately conveys this?

Give us the context of the surprise.
You got a pretty good list already. But they have different uses. Are you scared, happy, shocked, sad?

Surprised as completely unexpected as in I walked into a bar in Sosua to find AZB with a UBH. :surprised

In that case, I would use a chain of words.
Something like "estoy asombrado, confundido y asustado a la vez".

Stop With The Diet Coke. All That Asperteme Will Mess You Up

But going back to the post and the context.

I think that , upon finding AZB with a UBH, the first words should be "Co?o er diablazo mi pana" Then something more cultured as you regain your composure.

The above expression is not gramatical, it is the argot used in the streets, but it conveys the message.

Enjoying this thread!

HB :p

Maybe the aspertame is what's keeping me from getting my 5K time under 18 minutes.
I'll have to reconsider that.

Back to the thread, I concur HB. I think a high pitched "DIABLAZO" would cover all the bases.

Agree with HB. Co?o is the most versatile word to express anything like this. Actually depending on inflection can be used for anything.

There's also "Diablo mano...uste si e apretao"...A la cibae?o...
