I’ve heard some people confusing the words discusting and disgusting. Here’s the difference between the two.
Discusting
Discusting is a misspelling of disgusting. It’s easy to see why people misspell it because disgusting sounds like discusting; the hard G sound sounds like a hard C sound.
Disgusting
Disgusting, on the other hand, is the act or state of causing disgust.
I woke up covered in baby puke; it was disgusting.
Memory tip: If you have a hard time remembering how to spell disgusting, just remember that disgusting and gross both contain a G and both mean the same thing.
