Hangry!

# Tue, 31 Oct 2006 19:27 – No comments

I write here today to promote the new and not quite yet accepted word 'hangry'. It refers to, of course, the state of being both hungry and angry. As hunger often leads to anger, and vice versa, this state is very common, and it's suprising that there's no widely used word for it. But 'hangry' sounds very promising in this respect.

It may be worth noting, though, that 'hangry' is sometimes used only to describe the state of being angry because of being (very) hungry. But nevertheless, it's a word that may have a great future, if people used it.
