- 1挑撥、唯恐天下不亂（的言行）（粗話）
Shit-stirring is the act of stirring up trouble — spreading talk, poking old wounds, making people dislike each other more. People also use it like an adjective: a shit-stirring comment, a shit-stirring colleague. Informal and rude. Though actually, a short dictionary line may make it sound like a person. The clearer word for the person is . This one is usually the stirring itself, or a way to describe the person or the remark that does it. Same dirty picture as stir shit: keep the mess moving so nobody calms down.
組成shit + stirring (the -ing form of stir). Same build as shit-stirrer, but this piece is the doing, not the doer.
