Two words I've come across over the years are 'Boak,'.............. to be sick and 'minging.'............ to stink. I've always thought of these as great Scottish descriptive words that leave you in no doubt as to their meaning. I'm not sure how global these words are today. Often 'Minging is changed to 'mingin' dropping the g helps the meaning. Try them and see. :woohoo:
