feeling of being irritated

A feeling when something or someone bothers you and makes you a little angry.

الگوی کاربرد: [someone]'s annoyance at/with [something or someone]
اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes say *"I have an annoy"* instead of *"I feel annoyance" or "I am annoyed". Use "annoyance" as a noun for the feeling, and "annoyed" as an adjective (e.g. "I am annoyed"). Learners also confuse "annoyance" with stronger words like "anger"; "annoyance" is usually milder.
هم‌معنی‌ها
irritation (Very close in meaning, but can sound slightly more formal or physical, while "annoyance" is often more emotional.)
متضادها
pleasure (Describes a positive feeling of enjoyment, the opposite emotional reaction to annoyance.)
