Re: ...I'm scared
Why does elephantinegrace make you nauseated? Something I missed?
Oh, and a minor thing, don't mean to be a knob-head or anything, but nauseous is (If I'm correctly remembering the explanation I was given the last time I got this wrong) A property something has to make other people nauseated, not the feeling of nausea itself. In this scenario, you find elephantinegrace nauseous, because they make you nauseated.
Re: ...I'm scared
(Anonymous) 2014-06-04 11:58 am (UTC)(link)"Those who insist that nauseous can properly be used only in sense 1 and that in sense 2 it is an error for nauseated are mistaken. Current evidence shows these facts: nauseous is most frequently used to mean physically affected with nausea, usually after a linking verb such as feel or become; figurative use is quite a bit less frequent. Use of nauseous in sense 1 is much more often figurative than literal, and this use appears to be losing ground to nauseating. Nauseated is used more widely than nauseous in sense 2."
