gust

From Latin gustāre (to taste) and gustus (a taste, flavor). The family is about tasting and the appetite that comes with it: gustatory and gustation are the technical words for the sense of taste, while gusto (borrowed through Italian) is the relish you feel when you enjoy something with full appetite. The prefix dis- reverses that pleasure — disgust literally means 'bad taste,' a gut-level rejection that widened into moral revulsion. Note: the weather word 'gust' (a sudden wind) is a Germanic look-alike with no connection to taste.
