Angry = 生气 [shēng qì]

A red chili pepper stands with its hands on its hips, eyes squeezed shut, blasting fire out of its mouth. It is very, very 生气.

生气 (shēngqì) means “angry” or “to get angry.” 生 means to produce, and 气 is air, breath or anger.

To be angry with someone, put them in the middle: 生我的气 (shēng wǒ de qì), angry with me.

别生气了。 — Bié shēngqì le. — Don’t be angry anymore.

他还在生我的气。 — Tā hái zài shēng wǒ de qì. — He is still angry with me.
