This crude but common expression describes being annoyed to the point of anger. It's more intense than 'irritated' but usually less than 'furious.' Note the crucial British vs. American difference: in British English, 'pissed' alone means drunk, but 'pissed off' means angry everywhere.

这个粗俗但常见的表达描述恼怒到愤怒的程度。它比'irritated'更强烈，但通常不如'furious'。注意英式和美式的重要区别：在英式英语中，单独的'pissed'意思是喝醉了，但'pissed off'在哪里都表示愤怒。

Esta expresión cruda pero común describe estar molesto hasta el punto de la ira. Es más intenso que 'irritated' pero usualmente menos que 'furious'. Nota la diferencia crucial entre británico y americano: en inglés británico, 'pissed' solo significa borracho, pero 'pissed off' significa enfadado en todas partes.

この下品だが一般的な表現は、怒りに達するほどイライラしていることを表します。「irritated」より強いが、通常「furious」ほどではありません。イギリス英語とアメリカ英語の重要な違いに注意：イギリス英語では「pissed」だけだと酔っているという意味ですが、「pissed off」はどこでも怒っているという意味です。

거친 표현이지만 흔히 쓰이는 이 표현은 화가 날 정도로 짜증나는 상태를 묘사한다. 'irritated(짜증나는)'보다 강하지만 보통 'furious(격분한)'보다는 약하다. 영국식 영어와 미국식 영어의 중요한 차이점에 주의: 영국 영어에서 'pissed'만 쓰면 '취한'이라는 뜻이지만, 'pissed off'는 어디서든 '화난'이라는 뜻이다.

Origen e historia

This expression emerged in the 20th century, using 'piss' as a crude intensifier. The 'off' suggests being driven away from a normal state by annoyance. Despite its vulgar origins, it's become relatively mainstream in casual speech.

Etimología: From vulgar 'piss' as intensifier + 'off' (disturbed from normal state)

Primera vez registrado: Common from the 1940s onwards

Contexto cultural

Era: 1940s onwards

Generation: All ages, though crude

Social background: Universal, informal contexts only

Pop culture: Common in film and TV dialogue; Often censored in broadcast media

Regional notes: Used universally but remember the British/American 'pissed' difference—Brits say 'pissed off' for angry, just 'pissed' for drunk.
