Etymology
The word 'disgusted' originates from the late Middle English term 'disgusten', which itself is derived from the Latin word 'disgustare'. This Latin term combines 'dis-', meaning 'apart', and 'gustare', meaning 'to taste'. Hence, it originally conveyed the idea of distaste or aversion, particularly in response to something perceived as unpalatable. The term evolved through the centuries, capturing not just a physical rejection of taste but expanding its meaning into emotional and moral realms. By the 16th century, 'disgust' was firmly established in English as a descriptor of both physical revulsion and profound disapproval, reflecting changes in societal norms. Over time, the adjective 'disgusted' emerged to express the state of experiencing such strong feelings, suggesting a blend of personal taste and ethical or aesthetic judgment.
