Do certain words have a "repulsive" sound?

Post Reply New Topic

Slurp. Can't read, type, or hear that word without thinking about people making that noise. Makes me want to vomit.

Aspie. Sounds stupid to me.

Belly. I know someone that is obsessed with them. I have developed an extreme dislike of the word over the years that I have known said person.

"Cute" words. Comfy, preggers, prego....etc.

There are loads of words I dislike the sound of.

One that I DO like is majestic.

Haha when I first saw this thread, the terms "preggers" and "preggo" came to mind. All those cutesy terms make me shudder. And I really hate words like "reckon" and "yonder". Hearing them makes me feel like I'm stuck in an episode of Hee Haw or something.

There are more terms than just "gullet" and "ret*d".

-Head case-It makes think of someone's head blowing up, sorry if that grosses anyone out.

-Overloaded

-Chow

-Scarf it down (That's a phrase, but it has a horrible sound to it)

-Words (When used in a context that words are a good thing no matter what): It makes me think of people sucking their thumbs.

-Serial

-Cow-tell

ma hubby triana take ma babe from meh!

Pretty repulsive, hey?

Vomit. Can't stand it and I picture it in my head when someone says it and I have a phobia of seeing, hearing or thinking about someone vomiting. I love the word "cute" though.

I can very rarely bring myself to say "Aspergers" out loud. whenever I hear it I imagine "ass burgers" and it seems highly inappropriate. if I'm telling someone what's wrong with me I prefer to say I'm a slow thinker or slow reactions or whatever best describes my difficulty at the time.

EWE EW EWE WE W EWEW YUCK! I hate those cute words, I hate them so much I could seriously slap the people who use them. lol @ hee haw

I've gotten upset and angry after reading all these sickening words.

Yeah, I wish it wasn't pronounced the way it is. Sounds like an apt name for a McDonald's sandwich. I often just tell people I have a form of high functioning autism.

I say it with a j sound, its how its done in this country, so I've never had the arse burger problem.

Good man! I was going to post that, but I thought "you know, there's no way someone hasn't already brought it up."

erogenous ZOOOOOOONE

I've heard it pronounced with the J sound by some people. I kind of liked that pronunciation better at first, but then it occurred to me that it sounds like "ass purgers", so I'm not sure which is worse, haha.

Blancmange . gloop and blob

UUurhggh - makes me shiver just thinking them.


I love the word, 'antipodean' though . My favourite word - just rolls off the tongue and is unexpected somewhat in the way it ends. Antipodean. I love it.

I hate the word Aspergers.

And now that I am in Kentucky, I hate: yall, winders, warshing, wraslin, do what, and fixin.

All of those words sound bad enough, but when they say it with a country twang? I just want to repeatedly punch them in the face until they pronounce it right.

Right now my favorite word is discombobulated. I imagine everything bouncing around like jello when I say that word....

OK, I lied, I hate the sound of those two words. My grandma, who is from Eastern Washington, pronounces "washing" like that. That's the only word she pronounces differently, and I have no idea why she still says it when no one else here does.

Cutesy words:

Preggers
Baby Bump
Auties
Aspies
Veggies (Especially this one- I hate it)
Piggy/Piggies (Not always, depending on how it's used.)

Regular words:
Kid(s)

I hate that. "I'm going to wARRRRSCHHH the dishes now" drives me nuts.

Also: "We're going to solve for EEEEELLLLMMM." It's just M, not EEEEELLLLMMM.

And then there's the British/Australian accent, which is just humorous. "I loyke biskits ind tea, ind I tulk kinda funny, loyke this."
