spit

The Chinese word '吐' (tǔ) means to expel saliva from the mouth, and it can also refer to the act of removing something undesirable from the body, like vomit. In everyday conversation, it may be used more informally to describe someone expressing disdain or contempt verbally, akin to the English expression 'spitting out words.' Additionally, it is used in various contexts to convey disgust or rejection.
