    Making you feel a little angry or impatient.

    示範例句 · Example

    My little brother has an annoying habit of copying everything I say.

    逐字我弟弟有一個煩人的習慣,就是模仿我說的每一句話。

    「annoying」形容「讓人有點生氣、不耐煩」的人事物,程度比 angry 輕,是那種「煩、討厭」但還沒到大發脾氣的感覺。可以形容習慣、聲音或狀況,例如 an annoying habit(惱人的習慣)、an annoying noise(煩人的聲音)。記住:讓你煩的東西是 annoying,你自己覺得煩則是 annoyed。

    常見搭配

core核心畫面

Picture a dripping tap you cannot switch off. It does no harm, but it keeps poking at your patience until you cannot ignore it. That is the size of this word: small and repeated, not big and serious — closer to a mosquito than to a real problem.

可以想成:一個關不緊、一直在滴水的水龍頭。它不會造成什麼傷害,但一直戳著你的耐性,戳到你沒辦法不理它。這個字的份量就是這樣:小而且重複,不是嚴重的大事——比較像蚊子,不是真正的麻煩。所以它形容的多半是小事,用來講重大的事會顯得語氣太輕。
