Comments: | I don't a case for the [form[ - it's in regular use. I think Sankoku's 文 is a bit overdone. The JEs have kana-only examples but the n-grams say otherwise. |

Refs: | https://biz.trans-suite.jp/6674 「甚だ」の英語表現は「quite」「really」など quite、really、greatly、highly、extremely、awfully、terribly 【副詞の使用例】 「甚だ疑問だ」という強く疑問を感じるという意味の表現 ___ quite doubtful. 「甚だ遺憾(残念)」という残念な気持ちを強く伝える表現 ___really regrettable. As an apology, more likely written than not verbal form. "very sorry" 「非常に申し訳ない」という気持ちを表す時に「甚だ申し訳ありません」と言うことができます。言葉で伝えるときよりも、書面で使う表現です。 https://eikaiwa.dmm.com/uknow/questions/100613/ "Its's extremely doubtful"=「それは甚だ疑問である」 Another formal confirmation: http://hinagata-shiritai.com/contents/detail/53/ 非常にかしこまった、堅い印象を与える言葉としての意味も持っています。 Some randomly-selected [uk] comparisons (kanji usually, not always wins) 甚だ疑問 49020 はなはだ疑問 27362 甚だ迷惑 4219 はなはだ迷惑 2957 甚だ残念 2580 はなはだ残念 3351 甚だ不安 2663 はなはだ不安 1593 甚だ怪しい 2063 はなはだ怪しい 1452 甚だ多い 997 はなはだ多い 693 |

Comments: | Used heavily in formal apologies. Removed [uk], adding [form]. Flagged as 文 in sankoku. Not generally [uk] in the ngrams; This looks like a common term where the kanji is commonly present. "quite" and "highly" match [form] and are useful for common adjectives: "quite tall", "quite/highly doubtful", "quite/highly unlikely", etc. This is a common term (ichi1,news2,nf31) whose gloss depends highly on context, so I think a few more applicable suggestions won't hurt. |
