snappish

snappish
Adjective
comp: snappishersup: snappishest

This term describes a specific kind of irritability characterized by short, sharp bursts of temper. It suggests a lack of patience where the speaker cuts others off or responds with biting brevity, mirroring the quick, sudden motion of a snap. It is more focused on the manner of delivery than a deep-seated anger.

While similar to grumpy or irritable, snappish specifically implies an outward, verbal aggression. It is frequently used to describe people under high stress or those who are exhausted, indicating a temporary loss of social grace rather than a permanent personality trait.
