Hello,


The sentence should read:


"The man turned to him with a look of disapproval."


"Disapprove" is a verb, whereas "disapproval" is a noun. In this context, the correct word to use is "disapproval", which describes the man's facial expression, indicating that he does not approve of something.


Example sentences:


· The teacher gave the student a look of disapproval for cheating on the exam. (Here, "disapproval" describes the teacher's expression)

· The committee will disapprove the proposal if it doesn't meet the requirements. (Here, "disapprove" is a verb, meaning to reject or refuse to approve)

Hope this helps,

Thank you
