How to express hatred or dislike ??

One of the fundamentals in knowledge gaining is that we have to take on the information into our brain in relation to already what we know. We should be able to link all the words to our common actions we do everyday. For this we need more depth on the meaning as well as the context in which the word are being used. My recommendation is as you learn try to use them in your daily conversations. By doing so you will never have a chance of forgetting them again. As always you are welcome to correct me and provide me with more inputs. Thanks in advance.

Today we are going to learn few words that help us to express hate or dislike.

Abhor : Abhor means simply 'to hate'. 
              Pronounce it as : [ab-hawr]
              Example usage : I abhors the way people leave their trash at the picnic sites in the park
              Synonyms : hate. 
              The word 'aversion' also expresses the somewhat a similar meaning.
                             
Aversion : means 'a strong dislike' 
                    Pronounce it as : [a-'ver-zhan, -shan]
                    Example usage : 'an aversion to exercise'.
              

Though you can use this abhor and aversion to express dislike, there is something called 'disgust' which can be used to express our dislike to the food that we consume.  It is a universal, basic emotion that functions to help protect an organism from ingesting potentially harmful substances, thereby promoting disease avoidance. It is one of the basic emotions and is typically associated with things that are regarded as unclean, inedible, infectious, gory or otherwise offensive. Sometimes it is also used to express 'extremely unpleasant' conditions. 

Disgust : means 'to offend the taste or moral sense of'
                  Pronounce it as : [dis-gust']
                  Example usage : This smells disgusting.

Similar to aversion there is 'loathe' which also expresses almost exactly same meaning. 

Loathe : means 'to feel intense dislike'
                Pronounce it as : [loth]. Stress 'o'.
                Example usage : He is the man who is loved and loathed for exactly the same 
                                              reasons.

Abominate : means 'to dislike intensely, abhor'
                      Pronounce it as : [a-bomi-nat] 
                      Example usage : She abominates the drunkenness of her husband and is getting 
                                                    ready to sue him for a divorcee.

Detest : means 'to dislike intensely'
                Pronounce it as : [di-test]
                Example usage : we were now in the throes of winter, a time that is detested in the
                                              sea.

Execrate : means 'to declare to be hateful'
                    It is mostly used to mean 'to curse'
