English (US)

snapped at someone = got mad at someone quickly or for little reason.

For example,

Mom, calm: “have you done the dishes?”

Son, angry suddenly: “No! I already told you, I’ll do them later!”

You could say the son snapped at his mother.

@jrvv This guy was talking to a woman on the phone and his voice started to kinda shake, he was losing his temper, and then all of the sudden he yelled: “Well, fuck that!”.

Can I say that he snapped at her?
