adjective B2 property
1

shockingly bad or immoral

Very, very bad in a way that shocks people and makes them feel angry or upset, especially about what is right or fair.

استعمال کا انداز: an appalling [noun]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes mix up "appalling" and "appealing" because they look similar. "Appalling" means extremely bad and shocking, while "appealing" means attractive or interesting. Learners may also use "appalling" for things that are only a little bad; in natural English, it is very strong and suggests serious shock or moral anger.
ہم معنی الفاظ
outrageous (Emphasizes that something is very shocking and makes people feel angry or offended.) | disgraceful (Stresses that something is morally wrong and brings shame.) | shocking (General word for causing strong surprise and anger; slightly weaker and broader than 'appalling'.)
متضاد الفاظ
admirable (Describes something that people respect and approve of, the opposite of morally shocking or very bad.) | acceptable (Means something is good enough and not morally or socially offensive.)

adjective B2 property
2

extremely bad or unpleasant

Very, very bad or very unpleasant, for example about service, weather, or performance.

استعمال کا انداز: [something] is appalling
عام غلطی:
Learners may overuse "appalling" for small problems, where native speakers would say "bad" or "not very good". "Appalling" is very strong and suggests something is much worse than normal. They also sometimes confuse it with "annoying"; "appalling" is about very bad quality, not just something that bothers you a little.
ہم معنی الفاظ
terrible (Very common and slightly less strong; can describe anything very bad or unpleasant.) | dreadful (Similar strength, often used for experiences that feel very unpleasant or low quality.) | awful (Informal and very common; often used in the same situations but slightly less intense.)
متضاد الفاظ
excellent (Highlights that the quality is very good, the direct opposite of extremely bad quality.) | fine (Means acceptable or good enough, contrasting with strongly negative 'appalling'.)
