abomination
Something extremely disgusting or horribly wrong.
An abomination is something so horrible, disgusting, or wrong that it feels deeply offensive. The word carries strong emotion: it describes things that are shockingly bad, the kind of thing that makes people recoil.
In older religious texts, an abomination meant something that violated sacred laws or moral codes. Ancient scriptures described certain acts as abominations to show they were seriously forbidden, far beyond minor mistakes.
Today, people use the word more broadly but still dramatically. A chef might call a pizza topped with gummy bears an abomination because it violates everything pizza should be. An architect might describe a beautiful historic building being torn down as an abomination. When someone creates a science project that goes terribly wrong, mixing ingredients that create a foul-smelling mess, you might jokingly call the result an abomination.
The word suggests more than simple dislike. If you say “I don't like broccoli,” that's a preference. If you call something an abomination, you're saying it's fundamentally wrong, an offense against how things should be. It's a powerful word saved for things that truly disturb or disgust.
