In Brazil, you may encounter the word nojinho, which is a diminutive variation of nojo used to express a milder or more playful form of disgust.

To convey an immediate feeling of disgust similar to the English interjections "Ew!" or "Yuck!", you can use Eca!

While enojado means 'disgusted' in Brazil, in many Spanish-speaking countries the nearly identical word enojado means 'angry'.
The root of nojo is connected to old forms of the word for 'nausea', linking the emotional feeling of disgust directly to the physiological sensation of being sick.
In Brazil, if someone says they have nojo de você, it is a much harsher social insult than simply saying they are 'disgusted with you' in English. It implies a profound, almost physical rejection of the person's character.
