- 1生氣地、不悅地(偏英式、語氣不太重)
In an angry or way, but usually a small, sharp anger, not a huge fight. “You’re late,” she said crossly. The base word is “cross” meaning a bit angry. That use is especially British, and it sounds a little old-fashioned or like a parent or a teacher in a storybook. Americans more often say “.” Crossly tells you how someone spoke or looked, not how they walked across a room.
