Deceptive/corrupt[edit]

This meaning is not covered by the article. Perhaps also a mentioning of the expressions "rotten to the core" or "rotten on the inside" would be appropriate? I have no clue of the correct way to add them myself, but hopefully someone does!--81.231.126.251 06:26, 22 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Redden[edit]

Could rotten be related to the German word for to redden?

Probably not. — Vildricianus 21:11, 18 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
Definitely not. It's related to the German word for "to rot", though, which is verrotten.

Terrible[edit]

Can also mean "terrible" or "sick", e.g. "I feel rotten today." Tooironic 12:58, 27 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Well anyway I've added three or so more senses. Enjoy! ---> Tooironic 23:21, 23 May 2010 (UTC)Reply
