One word in English you don't like

[Alondra]

Mine is "appropriately". It's commonly used by people explaining their thinking or belief, without giving consideration that the word has different meaning to millions of people with different cultures around the world.

The c* word - literally can't even bring myself to type it!!

This 🤣🤣

Supper.

Posh twat, you are having your tea!!

Y’know - said in a clipped, brusque manner by intellectuals several times in every sentence on Radio 4.

I find it jarring and pretentious.

No, I don’t bloody know!

Furbaby- gives me the ick. DH can’t stand holibobs, which I quite like.

Oh I always mean it! In the nicest possible way.

I can never pronounce post-apocalyptic!

Pussy. I think anyone uses that is a rotter.

Me too. Sounds so wet.

How often you see a man the press calls inappropriately dressed in a social or royal setting? How often you read women saying the same about a man in the same setting?

Men dressing like fools in the same social situations are often described as "excentric". Women not complying with the conservative style expected of the social even event are often given the word "inappropriate"

You probably don't notice it because English is your first language, but heck, I do.

Rope

Not sure why, just really hate the way it sounds.

Pop as a verb. It's just so twee! Unless you're popping popcorn or are High Grant singing Pop goes my heart just please stop! Love the poem with it though.

Fistly, it isn't my first language. But thanks!

And I don't really take what newspapers say.

You mentioned different meaning to people around the world, then it applies to women (dress, behaviour etc) not men. I am just saying that it does apply to men too and I saw it happen numerous times. Some places are well strict on attire and behaviour for both. And I don't mean just when in religious buildings.

Either way though, "appropriate" has the same meaning elsewhere as in UK as far as I can see

I hate, when reading a book, that a character 'munches' food.
Munch, munches, munched. Makes me frown at the page.

Belly, particularly when describing pregnancy. But also when used to mean stomach to a lesser extent.

Grinned whe used in books for speech e.g. 'xxxxx' Mary grinned. Makes me cringe.

Literally. Don't hate the word just hate how overused it is

Meteorology. I can spell it, but I can't say it unless I go really slowly and then I sound like Forrest Gump. I wanted to take it as an outside subject at Uni, but the fact that I sounded so stupid saying it meant I didn't. Blooming hate the word.

Devour. Especially when someone refers to reading a book as ‘devouring’ it. Boak.

Oh god yes , I can feel my jaw clenching…

Veggies
Hollibobs
Hubby
Hubster
Crimbo

Anything that sets out to make an existing word sound 'fun'

Also, hard agree with Goblet and Pamphlet

Adding 'Methinks' on the basis that anyone uses it is a first class knob.

This is an interesting one- you’re absolutely right in the context of misogyny, but does the word as such bother you or the connotation? As in, does it bother you that “the steel mill had the foundries fired up to separate the slag from the ore?”

Do the posters that hate Hollibobs also hate Famalam?

I have a real hatred for gland, I think it looks and sounds disgusting. I also dislike vacuum and continuum.

Party - no matter the context it makes me think of the most twee 1950s children’s party with paper hats and little girls in pink and white dresses who are not allowed to get dirty and it makes me irrationally angry. I also don’t like the way the ‘rty’ feels in the front of my mouth.

Delicious - makes me feel slightly sick.

Poorly - specifically when a grown adult says "I feel poorly today". Not sure why I hate it!
