whelm /wĕlm, hwĕlm/
transitive verb

  1. To cover with water; submerge.
  2. To overwhelm.
[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

Technically correct (still the best kind of correct). However, the meaning has changed a but due to the word's falling into disuse. Colloquially, it is now used as a mid-point between overwhelmed and underwhelmed, describing a situation as a mundane experience. Not disappointing, too stimulating, or even satisfying; just neutral ("Tell my wife I said 'Hello'").
