tempestuous
意味: Characterised by strong, turbulent, or conflicting emotion; stormy and volatile in nature, whether describing weather, relationships, or periods of history.
Tempestuous is a literary and journalistic word that draws on the metaphor of violent storms. It is most commonly applied to relationships, personalities, and historical periods marked by dramatic upheaval. Unlike 'turbulent,' which can be neutral, tempestuous often implies passionate intensity — the storms it describes are not merely chaotic but emotionally charged.
