文法句型

annoy + somebody

it annoys somebody when/that ...

be annoyed by/with somebody

用法筆記

Often passive ('be annoyed by/with'). 'Annoyed with' takes a person; 'annoyed by/at' takes a thing or action. Weaker than 'anger' or 'infuriate'; the feeling is mild and usually temporary.

常見錯誤

I am annoying with my brother.
I am annoyed with my brother.
the person feeling the emotion uses '-ed'; '-ing' describes the cause.
She annoys from the noise.
She is annoyed by the noise.
use the passive 'be annoyed by' for the cause, not 'annoy from'.
