shocking/offensive Explanation: Like the others said, which one you choose depends on the overall context. My gut instinct tells me, though, that "shocking" is probably the most appropriate choice. Source: Larousse Advanced French/English Dictionary |

... comes as a bit of a shock Explanation: i.e. the maintenance charge for the gas tanks comes as a bit of a shock. I think that's more or less equivalent, taking "c'est un peu heurtant" as the source term, rather than just extracting "heurtant". |
