※ 引述《sui18 (言語不能表達一切)》之銘言：
: irritated
: angry
: mad
: furious
: 以上這些單字都有"生氣"的意思
: 但如果要依憤怒的程度來看的話
: 應如何排列？
: 我自己是認為furious(狂暴)>mad(發狂、發怒)>angry(生氣)>irritated(惱怒)
: 不知道這樣的排列有沒有錯誤？
: 謝謝
irritated = annoyed (to cause sb. to feel slightly angry)
furious (very angry)
mad雖然意思同上也是非常生氣，但並不是正式用法，
通常用在cause sb. to become mentally ill上
所以應該是furious = mad (但是指涉不同) > angry > irritated
我再補充幾個其他有關生氣的形容詞供你參考(有關於此的多得很，便只列幾個)
wrathful (extreme anger) = infuriated (V./ Adj.)= wrothful (中古英文文學用詞) =
livid (extremely angry常用於口語)
ireful (intense anger此字用於書面少用於口語)
incensed (very angry) = enraged
sore [not before noun] informal especially American English upset, angry, and
annoyed, especially because you have not been treated fairly
indignant about N → angry and surprised because you feel insulted or unfairly
treated
peeved = annoyed
piqued =[transitive usually passive] to make someone feel annoyed or upset,
especially by ignoring them or making them look stupid
