Ep. 165 😡 TOP 10 OTHER WAYS TO SAY "I'M ANGRY" IN ENGLISH
🟥 Link the the original video lesson: https://youtu.be/vJtnHPnAqOI
Here are the top 10 other ways to say "I'm Angry" in English along with the top 10 things that might make us made. In this English lesson I explain how you can be irritated, bothered or it can bug you if you're mad. You can also say your blood is boiling if you're angry. It might drive you crazy. You might throw a hissy fit. These are all handy ways to express yourself if you're learning English. You can say it ticks you off, or you might want to jump down someone's throat. You might also hit the roof. If you're learning how to speak English, another way to say that you're mad is that you might flip out, or you could blow a fuse, or blow a gasket, or simply blow up.
Some things that might make us mad if we're learning how to speak better English is when people chew their food loudly or if you stub your toe. What about crying babies when you go out to eat for a date night or get seated on a plane? Another thing that really makes me want to tear someone a new one is when people leave trash out in beautiful nature. It really makes me hit the roof when someone spoils an episode of a TV show that I'm watching or a movie that I haven't seen yet. Sometimes, I lose it when I'm behind slow drivers or I hit every red light when I'm late.
