BELCHED Meaning and Definition

  1. Belched is the past tense and past participle form of the verb "belch". To belch means to emit or produce a sudden loud expulsion of air or gas from the mouth, often accompanied by a characteristic sound and an odor. It is an involuntary action that occurs when excessive air or gas accumulates in the stomach or esophagus, and is subsequently released through the mouth.

    This phenomenon is commonly associated with digestion, particularly after consuming food or beverages that are carbonated or high in gas content. The release of the air or gas is accompanied by a distinct sound, often described as a deep, guttural noise, and may also be accompanied by an unpleasant odor resulting from the mixture of gases expelled.

    The act of belching is often considered impolite or socially inappropriate, especially in formal or public settings. However, it can provide temporary relief from discomfort or bloating caused by gastric distress. In some cultures or social contexts, belching may even be considered a sign of satisfaction after a meal.

    Overall, belching is a natural bodily function that serves the purpose of expelling excess gas from the digestive system. While it may be seen as unpleasant or offensive in certain situations, it remains a common occurrence in human physiology.

Etymology of BELCHED

The word "belched" has its origins in the Old English language. It is derived from the Old English word "bealcettan", which meant "to bring upwind". This word was a combination of "be-" (which indicated "about, around") and "alcettan" (which meant "to bring up").
