The state or act of experiencing wonder or finding something strange and marvelous; marveling or being astonished.
Present participle or gerund form of 'ferly' (or related to 'ferlie'), adding the '-ing' suffix to create a noun describing the ongoing action or state of experiencing the wondrous.
By adding '-ing,' speakers could turn the wonder itself into an action—'ferlying' wasn't just seeing something strange, it was the active experience of being amazed by it, which is a beautiful distinction.
