deserving strong dislike and no respect

So bad or low in character that people strongly dislike it and do not respect it.

استعمال کا انداز: [someone/something] is contemptible
عام غلطی:
Learners often confuse "contemptible" with "contemptuous." "Contemptible" describes the person or thing that deserves contempt (e.g., "a contemptible lie"), while "contemptuous" describes the person who feels or shows contempt (e.g., "a contemptuous look"). They are not interchangeable.
