I uploaded a video about happy related expressions.

我有上傳一部有關於表達與快樂相關的方法的影片

有關於使用字詞以及片語來表達快樂這個情緒的相關單字

Well, I was thinking the other day it's great to be happy

我想，雖然保持著快樂

以及正面的情緒很棒，但還有一件非常非常重要的事情就是

當你感到非常生氣以及懊惱時，該如何用英文表達你的情緒

Getting angry or annoyed is human nature

Just a quick warning, a couple of the words that I'm going

稍微做個提醒，以下我將提到的詞彙

to talk about could offend some people,

可能會冒犯到某一些人

or maybe you don't want your children knowing them.

又或者是你不希望你的小孩知道這些詞彙

沒有髒話，但如果有小孩在旁邊的話，請記得使用耳機

And if you are easily offended

若你很容易感到被冒犯

You've been warned.

以上我已經先是先提醒囉

The first bit of new vocabulary

第一個我要分享給你的新單字

that I'm going to share with you

is actually a phrasal verb and this is to piss off.

是一個動詞短語，叫做to piss off

And you can also be pissed off.

或者直接表達你的情緒 be piss off

And it means to make angry or to annoy.

這個字的意思是指讓你生氣或惱怒

So I could say, I felt really pissed off

所以我可以說, I felt really pissed off

when I saw that somebody had scratched my car.

當我看到有人刮我的車

Or I think I really pissed my teacher off

或者是I really pissed my teacher off

when I didn't hand in my homework on time.

當我沒準時交作業

Just so you know, that word, to piss off,

所以to piss off這個字

piss on its own is actually a vulgar word for

piss本身是一個粗俗的字眼

to urinate, so it's not respectful.

指的是小便的意思，所以非常不尊重人

So around friends, very informal situations.

所以只能在朋友間，或非正式的場合上使用

But, it's important you understand it.

但是還是很重要需要讓你們知道

The next one is another phrasal verb and this is

下一個是另一個動詞短語 叫做

to rile somebody up, to rile one up.

to rile somebody up, to rile one up

And again it means to make somebody angry,

這個也是讓人感到生氣的意思

to push them until they maybe explode or lose their temper.

一直煩他們直到他們爆發或發脾氣

So to rile up or to rile somebody up is to make them angry.

所以to rile up或rile sb up是指讓人生氣

So I could say, somebody's been picking on me for a while

所以我可以說，某人一直煩我

and they're really riling me up,

而really riling me up

I feel like I'm going to lose my temper.

我覺得我快爆發了

OK, the next words all go with the verb to be.

接下來的字，前面都會接to be

So these are all ways to say to be angry, or to be annoyed.

這些字都是用來表達感到生氣的或感到懊惱的

So the first one, to be livid.

第一個字 to be livid

Livid just means really, really, really angry.

Livid指的是非常非常非常生氣的狀態

Then we have to be fuming.

接著是to be fuming

Again, similar to livid, really, really angry.

一樣，這個字的意思跟livid相似，也是指非常非常生氣的

Then we have to be seething.

接著是to be seething

If you seethe you are just so angry.

Seethe指的是沸騰的意思，如果你感到"沸騰"，那代表你是非常生氣的

Then we have a couple that aren't as strong.

接下來的幾個是比較沒有這麼強烈的字眼

We have to be irked.

to be irked

That's annoyed and just ever so slightly pissed off.

這個字指的是懊惱的但比pissed off的程度再輕微些

And we also have miffed.

接著是 to be miffed

If somebody does something that makes you go oh,

如果有人做了某件事令你覺得很傻眼

then you could say you feel a bit miffed.

你就可以說you feel a bit miffed

And now I have some idioms for you, some expressions

再來，我有一些片語及表達方式要分享給你們

that we like to use to express annoyance or anger.

這些片語是用來表達懊惱及憤怒的

The first one is to rub somebody up the wrong way,

第一個是 to rub sb up the wrong way

or also to rub somebody the wrong way, the up is optional.

或者也可以說 to rub sb the wrong way, up可加也可不加

And to rub somebody the wrong way, think about it this way,

to rub sb the wrong way這個詞，你可以這樣想

you can stroke a cat the right way

當你用手以順時針的方向對一隻貓比劃著

or you can stroke them the wrong way and it annoys them.

或者你也可以換成另一個方向轉，會讓這隻貓覺得很煩

Well, this is exactly the same for people.

當然對於人也是相同的意思

If you rub somebody up the wrong way, you are treating them

如果你rub sb up the wrong way，代表你

in a way that might make them angry or annoyed.

對於他們做出的行為會讓他們感到生氣或惱怒

That really rubbed me up the wrong way,

那件事真的rubbed me up the wrong way

that really annoyed me.

代表那件事真的讓我覺得很煩

The next one, to be at the end of one's tether.

下一個是 to be at the end of one's tether

So if I say I'm at the end of my tether,

所以如果我說 I'm at the end of my tether

it means I am this close to losing to losing my temper.

那代表我已經非常接近要爆炸了

To getting really, really angry.

讓我非常非常的生氣

You've really offended me, you've really annoyed me,

你已經冒犯到我也打擾到我了

I'm this close to really exploding.

我的情緒只差一點點就真的要爆炸了

Another very similar one is the last straw.

另一個非常相似的片語叫做 the last straw

So the last straw is that final thing in a collection

the last straw就像是壓垮駱駝的最後一根稻草，有很多

of many little things that have annoyed you,

令你感到厭惡的小事集結起來

but that one thing it's the last straw,

最後會讓你爆發的這件事就叫做 the last straw

it's the thing that makes you lose your temper.

So I could say I had a terrible day

所以我可以說 我今天已經過得很糟了

but my running training being cancelled was the last straw.

跑步訓練又被取消，這件事是我的the last straw

I just, pff, screw it, was really angry.

我感到非常生氣

The next two are about losing your temper.

接下來的兩個是有關於讓你情緒爆發的片語

And obviously if you lose your temper it means (snaps)

很明顯的，如果你感到非常生氣，那代表

that's it, you are angry, you are shouting,

你很生氣，生氣到會大叫

you get maybe a bit aggressive.

你感到有一點暴躁

So one way of saying to lose one's

所以用來表達某人情緒爆炸的片語叫做

temper is to lose one's rag.

to lose one's rag

So rag replaces temper in this case.

rag在這個片語就代替了temper，兩者是一樣的意思

So if somebody lost their rag it means they

所以如果有人lose their rag代表他們

exploded in a fit of anger.

已經爆發了，感到很生氣

And another option is to fly off the handle.

另一個表達方式叫做 to fly off the handle

Again to lose one's rag, to fly off the handle,

to lose one's rag, to fly off the handle

to lose one's temper.

和to lose one's temper都是一樣的意思

So I've got some homework for you.

所以呢，我有一些作業要給你們

I would like you to write in the comments section

我希望你能在留言區

Normally I'm all about spreading positivity

通常我都是散發正向能量給大家的

but I don't know, today I want to spread

但我今天，我想散發一些
