The Power of "Irk": Understanding the Versatile Verb of Annoyance

"Irk" is a verb that means to annoy or bother someone. It can also be used to describe something that is causing frustration or discomfort.

For example, if someone is constantly making mistakes at work and it's driving their coworkers crazy, they might say "Your mistakes are really irking me today."

It's a relatively informal word, so it's not typically used in formal writing or professional settings. But it can be a useful word to have in your vocabulary when you need to express annoyance or frustration in a casual conversation.
