How do you say "annoying" in spanish? I know molesto is annoyed or bothered but not sure if its the same for annoying

Answer 1

HI Dan and helen

To differenciate this we use the verbs ser y estar in Spanish

Es molesto: to be bothering

está molesto: to be bothered

So this guy "es molesto"

Answer 4

I think it is "es molesto".

You use the form of "ser" to indicate a character trait, where using the form of "estar" would indicate a temporary emotion.

The teenage boy over there is annoyed.

You can also say "¡Qué fastidio!" (How annoying!)

Answer 6

I'd say "Está pesado" He's annoying. I've heard Mexicans say this but I'm not sure if it's universal.
