    Doctors use this word in a calm, slightly formal way. In ordinary talk many people just say they feel sick, or they feel like throwing up.

    Doctors醫生 use this word用這個字的時候 in a calm, slightly formal way語氣比較冷靜、稍微正式一點。 In ordinary talk日常說法裡 many people很多人 just say就直接說 they feel sick, or they feel like throwing upfeel sick,或 feel like throwing up。

    Though actually the word itself comes from the sea: Greek sailors named this feeling after the ship, because so many people felt it on the water. Today the feeling has nothing to do with ships unless you are on one.

    Though actually不過實際上 the word itself這個字本身 comes from the sea來自「海」 : Greek sailors希臘水手 named this feeling after the ship用船這個概念替這種感覺命名 because因為 so many people felt it很多人都會有這種感覺 on the water在海上。 Today現在 the feeling這種感覺 has nothing to do with ships跟船已經沒什麼關係了 unless you are on one除非你真的人在船上。

    One more messy bit: in English, nausea is the feeling in the body. In Chinese, 噁心 can mean that same body feeling, but it can also mean 'that's gross' about a person or an idea. English nausea does not do that second job by itself.

    One more messy bit還有一個容易搞混的地方 : in English在英文裡 nausea nausea講的是 is the feeling in the body身體裡的那種感覺。 In Chinese中文的 「噁心」 噁心 can mean可以指 that same body feeling同樣那種身體感覺 but but 也 it can also mean可以拿來罵 'that's gross'很噁心、很討厭 about a person or an idea一個人或一個想法。 English nausea英文的 nausea does not do that second job自己並不會拿來做第二種用法 by itself。
