Also, talking about disgust with anything involving feeling would tend to tilt things over to the "yuck" meaning. // But again, I can't explain what Grammarly's software is doing. | |
| Jun 30, 2019 at 6:20 | comment | added | Prince Kadyan | Thanks! I just searched the meaning of disgust on Merriam Webster. One meaning of disgust is, "annoyance and anger that you feel toward something because it is not good, fair, appropriate, etc." while another meaning is , "a strong feeling of dislike for something that has a very unpleasant appearance, taste, smell, etc" . So, I think my usage is not that inappropriate. However, I agree that most common meaning of disgust is as you are suggesting. | |
