Usage notes
- Usually used reflexively: arrabbiarsi con qualcuno/per qualcosa. Non-reflexive arrabbiare means “to make someone angry”: Questa cosa mi arrabbia.
- For temporary anger, prefer arrabbiarsi over adirarsi or infuriarsi in everyday speech; the others sound more formal or stronger.
- Past tense with the reflexive takes essere: mi sono arrabbiato/a. Agree the participle with the subject.
