Pissed Off | Learn English Slang Meaning, Grammar and Usage in Example English Sentences

Hi, everybody.

I'm Esther.

And in this video, we're going to talk about a slang word.

And that word is ‘pissed’ or ‘pissed off’.

Now, before I start, I want to tell you that ‘pissed’ can actually have several meanings.

But today, we're going to focus on one meaning.

And the meaning that I want to focus on is ‘angry’.

Okay, so ‘pissed’ or ‘pissed off’ can mean very angry or maybe upset or annoyed.

Okay, so before I explain a little bit more, let's look at these example sentences.

The first one is, “I'm pissed.”

This just means “I'm angry” “I'm upset”

So again, “I'm pissed.”

The next sentence is very similar.

“I'm pissed off.”

“I'm pissed off.”

Again, these two sentences have the same meaning.

They both mean ‘I'm very angry about something’

or ‘I'm very angry at somebody’.

Please also notice that we have to say 'pissed' in the past tense.

We have to say it with -ed.

If you say "I'm piss" without the -ed,

it actually has a different meaning.

So again, you must say “I'm pissed”

or “I'm pissed off” to show that you're angry.

Okay.

Here's the last sentence.

“I get pissed off when he lies to me.”

That means I get angry when he lies to me.

Again, “I get pissed off when he lies to me.”

Let's make sure we also notice the pronunciation “pissed off”.

‘pissed’

‘pissed off’

‘pissed’

And let's look at the example sentence one more time.

“I get pissed off when he lies to me.”

And for all the women out there, you understand what I mean, right?

When someone you care about or someone you love lies to you, you get angry or pissed off, right?

So let's look at a few more example sentences together.

“I was pissed off when the other car cut in front of me.”

“I was pissed off when the other car cut in front of me.”

“Don't get pissed off. It was a mistake.”

“Don't get pissed off. It was a mistake.”

“I'm pissed off that he didn't pay me back yet.”

“I'm pissed off that he didn't pay me back yet.”

Okay, so we looked at a couple example sentences,

and we learned the word ‘pissed’ or ‘pissed off’

so just remember it's a very common slang if you use it in America or another english-speaking country,

everybody will know that that means you're angry or upset.

But remember, you should probably only use this with your friends

because if you say this to somebody that you don't know well,

it can seem a little bit rude.

Okay, so please remember that when you're angry try saying ‘pissed’ or ‘pissed off’.

‘I'm pissed’

‘I'm pissed off’

All right, well I'll see you in the next video.

Bye.
