Italian word

arrabbiato

angry, furious

Looks like

rabid

affected with rabies; fanatically intolerant

⚠️ The trap

The word comes from 'rabbia' (anger, but also rabies in the disease sense). 'Arrabbiato' means angry — not rabid. A dog with rabies is 'cane rabbioso' or 'cane con la rabbia', not 'cane arrabbiato' (which just means an angry dog).

To say "affected with rabies; fanatically intolerant" in Italian:

rabbioso, idrofobo (for rabid)

"arrabbiato" in English means:

angry, furious

Example

"Mia madre era molto arrabbiata quando sono tornato tardi."

"My mother was very angry when I came home late."
