Talk:小氣

"getting angry easily"
, is this sense really different from the "petty" sense? In my mind, the "petty" sense would include something like "holding grudges" and "getting irritated for little things". The Chinese definition would be 度量小 or 氣量小. Same for 小氣鬼. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 15:57, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Also, is it actually "childish", as in only children use it or you would sound like a child if you use the term? — justin(r)leung { (t...) 15:58, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I don't think it's different from the "petty" sense. 小氣 is as you said, referring to someone who gets angry easily or holds grudges over trivial matters. The dog2 (talk) 16:21, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
