Definition
As a noun, disgust is a strong feeling of sickness or deep dislike, often caused by something dirty, offensive, or morally wrong. As a verb, to disgust someone is to make them feel that way.
Etymology
From French 'dégoûter' meaning 'to distaste', from 'des-' and 'goût' meaning 'taste'. It originally described something that literally tasted bad before expanding to moral and emotional reactions.
Kelly Says
Disgust started in the mouth—bad tastes—and then climbed into our morals. That’s why we use food words like 'gross' or 'sickening' for behavior we think is wrong, not just for rotten leftovers.
