There are many causes of a turning stomach, an emotion linked to anger, unhappiness, disappointment, worry, as well as stomach trouble and illness.
My Dictionary’s cartoon of an unhappy one-armed clown illustrates the ASL hand sign for UPSET.
The Flat hand on the stomach slides upward, then “flops” over with palm up, like anxiety or illness turning the stomach.
The facial expression changes for the context; an angry face for being unhappy, or a sickly face for an upset stomach.
