feeling or expressing strong hatred
Showing or feeling very strong hate toward a person or thing.
Vzorec užití:
[someone/something] is hateful (to [someone])
Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes confuse 'hateful' with 'hated'. 'Hateful' describes the person or thing that feels or shows hate (a hateful comment, a hateful person), while 'hated' describes someone or something that other people hate (a hated boss, a hated rule). Another mistake is using 'hateful' for mild dislike; in English it usually suggests very strong, often morally offensive hate.
Synonyma
hostile (Describes an unfriendly or aggressive attitude, not always as intense or morally loaded as 'hateful'.)
|
vicious (Emphasizes cruelty and intention to hurt, often stronger and more violent than 'hateful'.)
|
malicious (Focuses on wanting to cause harm, which is often but not always driven by hate.)
Antonyma
kind (Shows care and warmth toward others, the opposite emotional attitude of 'hateful'.)
|
tolerant (Willing to accept differences rather than react with hate or hostility.)

Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes overuse 'hateful' to describe normal dislikes (for example, 'a hateful movie' when they simply mean they did not enjoy it). In everyday English, 'hateful' usually sounds very strong and emotional, suggesting that something is not just bad but almost morally or physically revolting.
Synonyma
detestable (Very similar in strength to 'hateful', but slightly more formal or literary.)
|
disgusting (Focuses more on physical or moral disgust, not always on moral judgment to the same degree.)
|
vile (Strongly emphasizes moral or physical repulsiveness, often slightly stronger and more emotional than 'hateful'.)
Antonyma
pleasant (Describes something that gives comfort or enjoyment, the opposite of something 'hateful'.)
|
enjoyable (Focuses on giving pleasure, the direct opposite of a 'hateful' task or experience.)
