disgusted の語源・成り立ち Etymology
ラテン語 gustus（味）に否定の接頭辞 dis- が付き、古フランス語 desgouster（食欲を失わせる）を経て英語に。原義は「まずくて吐き気がする」で、そこから精神的な嫌悪感へ拡大。関連語: gusto（熱意＝味わう喜び）、gustatory（味覚の）。
Disgusted is the past participle of disgust used as an adjective. Disgust entered English through French dégoûter or earlier desgouster, meaning to cause distaste or loss of appetite. Its deeper elements are related to Latin gustus, “taste,” with a negative prefix. The meaning expanded from a bad physical taste and loss of appetite to strong emotional or moral revulsion. The suffix -ed marks the person affected by that feeling.
