How to use "Scowl" in context?
When something bothers you, your brow furrows, and you give a scowl. This way of expressing your displeasure is an effective tool because it shows that you are serious about your feelings and that you aren't going to take any nonsense from anyone. It's a powerful way of communication because it shows that you are in charge, and that you mean business. Think about the times when you've scowled at someone, especially when you were feeling frustrated or angry. It always made you feel better to unleash your anger in that way, didn't it? So, if you're feeling upset about something, why not scowl at it?
