覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
concussion（脳震盪）を知っていれば、その形容詞版だと覚えると早いです。日常語というより、concussive force / concussive blast / concussive injury のように「強打・爆風・衝撃波が体や頭を揺らす」場面でよく出ます。単なる strong や loud ではなく、「一撃で強く揺さぶってダメージを与える衝撃」が核。shock は感情面にも広く使えますが、concussive はかなり物理的で激しい衝撃に寄る語だと区別すると覚えやすい。
If you know `concussion`, this is the adjective form built from the same idea. It often appears in phrases like `concussive blast` or `concussive force`, so learn it together with those collocations. Think of a violent physical impact, not just something strong or surprising.

concussive の語源・成り立ち Etymology
concussive はラテン語 concutere「激しく揺さぶる」にさかのぼり、con-「強く/共に」+ quatere「振る」が核です。concussion や discuss も同根で、「揺さぶる衝撃」に関わる語だと分かると意味がつかみやすくなります。
Concussive goes back to Latin concutere, meaning "to shake violently," from con- and quatere "to shake." It is closely related to concussion. The central idea of a strong shaking or striking force stayed in the word and led to its use for impact or shock.
