“be annoyed with”是英语中常用的系表结构短语,核心含义是“对(某人)感到恼怒/烦躁/不耐烦”,强调因某人的行为或态度而产生的轻度不满情绪(程度弱于“be angry with”,后者更侧重“愤怒”)。
表示针对“人”的不满——因某人的具体行为(如迟到、疏忽、打扰等)而感到心烦或愠怒。
通常遵循以下搭配:
1、 基础结构:主语 + be(am/is/are/was/were等) + annoyed with + 人(sb.)
例:I’m annoyed with my roommate for leaving the kitchen messy.(我对室友把厨房弄乱感到烦躁。)
2、 补充原因:be annoyed with sb. for doing sth.(因某人做了某事而恼怒)
例:She was annoyed with her brother for borrowing her clothes without asking.(她因弟弟没打招呼就借她的衣服而生气。)
3、 否定形式:be not annoyed with sb.(不生某人的气)
例:Don’t worry—I’m not annoyed with you.(别担心,我不生你的气。)
要注意“be annoyed with”和“be annoyed at/about”的差异:
be annoyed with:后接人(针对具体的对象);
be annoyed at/about:后接事/物(针对抽象的情况或事物)。
例:
I’m annoyed with my friend(人)for canceling plans last minute.(我因朋友临时取消计划而烦他。)
I’m annoyed at the traffic(物)this morning.(我对今早的交通感到烦躁。)
现在时:She’s always annoyed with her colleague for being lazy.(她总因同事懒惰而烦他。)
过去时:He was annoyed with me yesterday for forgetting his birthday.(他昨天因我忘记他的生日而生气。)
现在完成时:Have you ever been annoyed with your parents for nagging?(你有没有因父母唠叨而烦过他们?)
“be annoyed with”是针对“人”的轻度不满,重点在“对某人的行为感到烦躁”,常与“for doing sth.”搭配补充原因。记住:人用with,事用at/about,避免混淆!
