dermaßen
so
The German word "dermaßen" is an adverb that means "to such an extent" or "so much". It is a combination of the demonstrative pronoun "der" (that) and "maßen" (measure). "Dermaßen" is used to indicate a significant degree or intensity of something, often used in conjunction with adjectives or adverbs to emphasize how extreme or dramatic a situation is.
Similar expressions include "so sehr" (so much) and "in solchem Maße" (to such a degree). The difference with these similar phrases mainly lies in the level of emphasis; "dermaßen" often conveys a stronger or more formal connotation of extent.
