unspeakably
Too intense verbally
Unspeakably is an adverb that intensifies something beyond the capacity of words to express it.
Most often it modifies adjectives with negative connotations: unspeakably cruel, unspeakably rude.
The word suggests that whatever is being described exceeds normal limits so dramatically that language fails.
It can occasionally intensify positive qualities, though this use is less common: unspeakably beautiful.
