How to express disgust in German

posted 1 year ago

This is about “interjections”. Inter-…who? What? Where? ;)…. Easier said: Exclamations! You need them to express an emotions like disgust, surprise, boredom, joy, excitement etc. Very often, you’d put them at the beginning of a sentence or as a pause. In written language, you wanna put a comma.

The little words are constantly used, so I’d like to share! Let’s start with ways to express disgust!

1. Pfui!

2. Igitt!

3. Iiiih!

4. Bäh!

I’d love to find out what you say when you find something disgusting!
