Word origin

First attested in 1644. Perhaps a back-formation from abomination. Alternatively, perhaps from Late Latin abōminātus, past participle of abōminarī (“to deprecate as an ill omen”), from ab + ominari (“to forebode, presage”), from omen.

Used in a sentence

  • "Much as I abominate writing, I would not give up Mr. Collins's correspondence for any consideration."
