As Merriam-Webster associate editor Kory Stamper explained to MTV News via email, "whelmed" actually predates its more commonly found cousins, overwhelmed and underwhelmed. According to Stamper, "whelm" first entered the English language as a verb in the s, meaning to capsize or overturn something. Eventually, it shifted to mean "placing or throwing something over something else with the intent to engulf it or crush it.
Language, as it is wont to do, kept evolving. Next, Stamper said, "'whelm" took on another, more dire, meaning: 'to bury, to submerge. William Shakespeare, whose "The Taming of the Shrew" is the source material for "10 Things I Hate About You," even used the word in this sense in "The Merry Wives of Windsor," meaning the movie's dialogue may be a little wink at the play.
Or maybe just meaning that Bianca's kind of a goof. Eventually, Stamper said, the meaning of "whelm" became synonymous with "overwhelm," which entered English use in the s, tracked happily in meaning with "whelm," then, well, overwhelmed it.
