- 1使想吐、令人作嘔
To nauseate someone is to make them feel they are going to vomit. A smell can nauseate you. A winding road can nauseate you.
To nauseate someone讓某人nauseate（想吐） is to make them feel就是讓他們覺得 they are going to vomit快要吐了。A smell一個氣味 can nauseate you可能會讓你nauseate。A winding road一條彎曲的路 can nauseate you也可能會讓你nauseate。
Though actually people also stretch it: a cruel story or a greedy act can nauseate you, meaning it turns your stomach because it is so wrong. That second use is a bit more like writing than like kitchen talk; in everyday speech you might say it made me sick.
Though actually不過事實上 people有些人 also stretch it也會把它延伸：a cruel story or a greedy act一個殘忍的故事或貪婪的行為 can nauseate you也可能讓你nauseate，meaning意思是 it turns your stomach它讓你反胃 because因為 it is so wrong這太不對了。That那第二種用法 second use is a bit more like writing比較像書面 than like kitchen talk而不像廚房裡的閒聊；in everyday speech在日常口語裡 you你 might say可能會說 it made me sick這讓我想吐。
You will also meet nauseated as a describing word: I felt nauseated. There is an old classroom fight about nauseated versus nauseous. Some teachers say nauseous should mean 'causing the feeling' and nauseated 'having the feeling.' Real people, especially in American English, use nauseous for both, and you will hear that every day.
You你 will也會 also meet遇到 nauseatednauseated（作為describing word描述詞）：I felt nauseated「我覺得nauseated」。There is還有 an old classroom fight一個老掉牙的課堂爭論 about nauseated versus nauseous是關於nauseated和nauseous的。Some teachers有些老師 say會說 nauseousnauseous should mean應該指 'causing the feeling'「causing the feeling讓人想吐的」 and而 nauseatednauseated指 'having the feeling'「having the feeling自己想吐的」。Real people真正的人 especially尤其 in American English在美式英文裡，use nauseous for both兩種意思都用nauseous，and而且 you你 will hear that every day每天都會聽到這種用法。
