⚠️ The trap
Fumo = smoke. English 'to fume' (to be very angry) = 'essere furibondo/a' in Italian — not related to 'fumare' (to smoke). 'Stava fumando di rabbia' is understood colloquially but not standard.
To say "smoke or gas emitted by something burning; to be very angry" in Italian:
fumo covers smoke; esalazione for fumes
"fumo" in English means:
smoke; steam; vapour
Example
"C'era troppo fumo nell'aria."
"There was too much smoke in the air."
