×He looked at the map bewilderingly.
✓He looked at the map, bewildered. / The map was bewildering.
「bewilderingly」是副詞，但使用頻率較低且不自然。更自然的說法是使用形容詞「bewildering」描述事物，或用「bewildered」描述人的狀態。

✓The experience was utterly/completely bewildering. ("for me" is often redundant)
雖然文法上正確，但「bewildering for me」略顯冗餘，因為「bewildering」本身已暗示了對人的影響。通常直接使用「was bewildering」或加上「utterly」、「completely」等副詞強化即可。
