extremely bad or unpleasant
Very, very bad in quality and making people feel strongly unhappy or upset.
استعمال کا انداز:
atrocious [noun] / [something] is atrocious
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes use "atrocious" for mildly negative things (like a slightly boring movie), but it is normally used for very strong criticism. It is also sometimes confused with "outrageous"; "atrocious" focuses more on how extremely bad or unpleasant something is, not on it being surprising or unfair.

Very, very bad in how something is done, such as writing, speaking, or driving.
