How to use "Disgust" in context?
When we feel disgust, it is as if our bodies are telling us to get away from something, or to clean something up. Disgust is an emotion that is brought on by the sense of being contaminated or unclean, and it is a way of protecting ourselves from something that might make us sick. Disgust can also be a reaction to seeing something that is truly terrible, such as a corpse or a body that has been mutilated.
Disgust can have a powerful effect on our emotions and our behavior.
