My Mom was a nurse and a serious student of English. One of her pet peeves was “nauseous.” “Nauseated” is the word for feeling like you’re going to vomit. “Nauseous” is the word for something that makes you feel like you’re going to vomit. E. g. That nauseous bowl of decaying newt eyes is making me feel nauseated.
