Arrogant, Overbearing and Haughty 盛气凌人，专横，傲慢

Sometimes we meet people who's behaviour can be annoying and irritating. They think they are better than you or they know it all.

There are a number of words in the English language we can use to describe them and our question this week is about three of them – arrogant, overbearing and haughty.

These words have subtle differences. An arrogant person can be unpleasantly proud and think they are more important than others.

A haughty person has a attitude of superiority and an overbearing person can be very confident and determined to tell others what to do.

Am I being arrogant, overbearing or haughty?

Join Rob and Li in Question and Answer of the Week as they explain more about the words but not in a haughty style!
