喜樂美語
  1. 1vB1/əˈnɔɪ/惹惱；使煩惱

    To make someone feel a little angry or unhappy.

    示範例句 · Example

    It really annoys me when people drop litter in the park.

    逐字當人們在公園裡丟垃圾時，它真的惹惱我。

    「annoy」是讓別人「有一點生氣、不太開心」的動詞——還沒到大發脾氣，但已經被戳到了。常見說法：annoy someone、it annoys me when / that...、do something just to annoy someone。跟 irritate 很近：irritate 常帶「一直發生、越來越煩」的感覺；annoy 範圍更廣，一次或多次都可以。比 anger / make angry 輕一點，比 bug（口語）正式一點。容易搞混的兩個形容詞：annoyed 是「人覺得煩」，annoying 是「事情／人讓人煩」。

core核心畫面

Picture something small poking at your patience — a phone that keeps buzzing, someone humming the same three notes. It does no damage; it just wears at you. That size is the whole point of the word: it sits well below anger, and it is usually caused by something minor and repeated.

可以想成：一件小事一直戳著你的耐性——手機一直震動、有人反覆哼同樣的三個音。它不會造成傷害，只是磨你。這個「份量」就是這個字的重點：它遠不到生氣的程度，而且通常是小而重複的事引起的。要形容嚴重的事讓人火大，用 make somebody angry 才對得上。
