Start with resent, meaning to feel angry or bitter about unfair treatment, an insult, or an unwanted demand. Add -ed to form resented. Since the base ends in a /t/ sound, the ending is pronounced /ɪd/: /rɪˈzentɪd/. Learn the patterns resented the decision and resented being blamed. The word usually suggests that the displeasure remained in the person’s mind, rather than describing only a brief burst of anger. This helps distinguish resented from simply disliked.

resented の語源・成り立ち Etymology
resented は re-「再び・強く」＋ sentire（ラテン語で「感じる」）にさかのぼり、古フランス語 ressentir を経て英語に入った語です。もともとは「いやなことを何度も感じ直す」感覚で、そこから「憤慨した」という意味になりました。関連語に sense, sentiment があります。
Resented is the past and past-participle form of resent. Resent came through French ressentir and ultimately reflects Latin sentire, meaning to feel or perceive, with a prefix expressing renewed or intensified feeling. Earlier uses could refer broadly to experiencing or feeling something strongly; in modern English, the verb narrowed to the idea of feeling anger or bitterness about a perceived wrong.
