Many people dislike "moist".

I have an aversion to the phrase "true freshman". It cracks my husband up because I cringe every time a sportscaster says it.

There was no need to create this phrase. None. It's either freshman or redshirt.

Not words but phrases. I hate titles that start with an -ing word: Serving Sarah, etc. They just make me cringe SO painfully inside. I'm not sure why.

Fetus... but *love* babies.

It's hard to feel connected to your fetus. Perhaps that's why most mothers say they're having a baby.

NYT put out a list of the most popular word aversions, some of which I don't get. That said, I have one that is like nails on a blackboard for me!

Per NYT some of the words are:

-crevice

-probe

-flesh

-ointment

-gargle


My only word aversion is PANTIES Ugh I HATE that word!

For my DD it's the word "moist", which does not bother me at all.

do you have any word aversions?
