How it's used

Describes a state of intense, volatile anger that often leads to irrational behavior or impulsive outbursts. Unlike simple annoyance, it implies a boiling point where the person loses their composure and acts out of pure frustration. It is frequently used to describe someone who is visibly agitated or reacting strongly to perceived injustice.

Common phrases

fan5憤gik1激hei2起lei4嚟

to become wrathful

Common mistake

Learners often confuse this with general anger like 嬲, but 憤激 carries a much stronger sense of being 'worked up' or 'agitated' to the point of losing control, rather than just feeling upset.
