The world has gone completely insane. Since when does a reputable dictionary collude with illiterates to come up with “North American informal” to just make shit up?

Can’t wait to see what they do with “niggardly.”

nonplussed–adjective
1 So surprised and confused that one is unsure how to react. ‘Henry looked completely nonplussed’
2 North American informal: NOT disconcerted; unperturbed.
Usage: In standard use nonplussed means “surprised and confused”, as in: “She was nonplussed at his eagerness to help out.” In North American English, a new use has developed in recent years, meaning ‘unperturbed’—more or less the opposite of its traditional meaning—as in “He was clearly trying to appear nonplussed.” This new use probably arose on the assumption that non- was the normal negative prefix and must therefore have a negative meaning. It is not considered part of standard English.

And also too as well the USA seems to have developed two competing forms of English. Thanks, Fox “news!” You cunts have shitted up everything!
