Eructated
To eject gas from the stomach through the mouth; to belch. This physiological process, often involuntary, occurs due to swallowed air, gas produced during digestion, or the rapid consumption of carbonated beverages. The resulting sound and sensation can vary greatly, from a barely audible release to a loud and prolonged expulsion of gas. Factors such as diet, eating habits, and certain medical conditions can influence the frequency and intensity of eructation. In some cultures, eructation is considered impolite, while in others it is viewed as a natural bodily function.
