喜樂美語
  1. 1

    If someone is crabby, small things them. They snap, they complain, they are not in a good mood — but it is everyday , not deep anger. It is an informal home word: Don’t be so crabby. Calling a person crabby is a little teasing, not a formal judgment. You will hear it more in casual American talk; British speakers use it too, though grouchy or may show up more in careful writing. It is milder and more everyday than furious, and it often points at tiny causes — the noise, the wait, the missing pen.
