How to use "Splenetic" in context?
Splenetic means excessively irritable. People with splenetic personalities are often quick to anger and can be explosively rude. Some believe that this trait is inherited, with people with a splenetic temperament tending to have parents who are similarly grouchy.
Others say that splenetic personalities are simply the result of a turbulent childhood. If a child is constantly pushed and pulled in different directions, they may come out upset and irritable. The stress of everyday life can also lead to an explosively angry temperament.
Whatever the case may be, people with a splenetic personality are often difficult to deal with.
