- 1厭惡、反感
An aversion is a strong dislike — a feeling of wanting to stay away from a person, a thing, a food, or an idea. You have an aversion to something. It can be a gut feeling (an aversion to snakes, to a smell) or a more thought-out one (an aversion to debt, to taking risks). The word is a little formal; in easy talk people say they can't stand something or they hate it. Though actually, aversion often sounds slightly milder and more polite than hate, even when the feeling is strong — it is a tidy noun for an push-away. In money talk you will hear risk aversion: not wanting to take chances with loss.
From the word’s history
From Latin āversiō.
借自拉丁文 āversiō，原意是「轉開」。
組成A learned borrowing from Latin aversio, aversio(n)-, 'a turning away.'
