Definition of Feisty in visual dictionary with synonyms and examples for advanced learners of English in real context
/ˈfaɪ.sti/ (adj)
Definition
touchy and excitable, quarrelsome, irritable, hyperactive, overactive, aggressive, forceful and active – with so much determination, exuberant, spirited, energetic, lively, vivacious
Example
Instability and inattentiveness make it difficult to handle hyperactive kids and more often you see them bouncing from activity to activity with seemingly limitless energy and ease and in a feisty manner.
You see, a hyperactive kid may have problems paying attention and sitting still in their seats. Also, they can be impulsive, which means doing things without thinking about the results.
Not a desirable trait, agree? But think about it! A hyperactive child is not ‘bad,’. It’s just that he/she may just need little more attention and patience to channelise their energy and thought-process.
