Sick

/sɪk/ adjective

Affected by illness or disease; feeling unwell. Can also mean disgusted or tired of something.

From Old English 'seoc', related to Germanic roots meaning weak or troubled. The slang meaning of 'excellent' emerged in 1980s hip-hop culture, creating a complete semantic reversal.
