Difference between “cross with you” and “angry with you”
- Cross is similar to angry, only less intense. It is used to express anger at minor matters.
--- You left the cream out all night. Now I'm cross with you.
---- She left me for another man. I was so angry with her I wanted to scream.
- To be cross implies irritability(цухалдах, амархан унпууцах), with a potential response that is vaguely out of proportion, and surprising, given the nature of the transgression.
--- The Latin professor is a fair teacher, but don't cross him.
What is the difference between being angry, mad, furious, cross and annoyed?
- Angry, mad, cross all mean the same thing, basically. But angry is the highest level out of all 3.
Furious is being so so angry and pissed off to the highest possible level.
Annoyed is when you aren't happy with something/someone and you are stressed but not pissed off or angry.
- they are all just different levels of angry
"cross" is how Jesus felt when He was crucified.
