覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
ここでは名詞ではなく、動詞 anger「怒らせる」に三人称単数現在の -s が付いた形で、語末は /z/ と発音します。His comment angers the teacher のように、原因となる物事を主語、怒る人を目的語に置きます。be angry「本人が怒っている」との主語の違いを意識しましょう。
Start with the base verb anger, “to make someone angry,” and add -s for a third-person singular present subject: a comment angers, the delay angers, or it angers. The ending is pronounced /z/. Focus on the sentence roles: the cause comes before the verb, and the person who feels anger comes after it. Thus The delay angers passengers means the delay causes their emotion. Compare this with Passengers are angry, which describes their state without naming the cause in the same grammatical pattern.

angers の語源・成り立ち Etymology
古ノルド語のangr（苦しみ・悲嘆）に由来する。語根は「狭く閉じ込める」で、心がふさがり息が詰まる状態から「怒り」の意へ転じた。同じ仲間のanguish（苦悶）やanxiety（不安）を知れば、怒りが心の窮屈さから生まれると腹落ちするだろう。
Angers consists of the verb anger plus the third-person singular present ending -s. Anger entered Middle English from Old Norse angr, meaning grief, distress, or affliction, and its sense later developed toward strong displeasure. The noun eventually also came to be used as a verb meaning “to make angry.” It belongs to a wider historical group associated with narrowness, constriction, and distress, which includes words such as anguish.
