    Yes, it close enough to a homonym that I can see your confusion. Exasperated is being fed up with something, exacerbated is something making a problem worse.

        Dictionaries frequently show common usages, even when they are misnomers. Recommend taking this one onboard.

        Edit - Oh, if you notice in your screenshot ddg got the definition you showed from wiktionary, so I wouldn’t treat that as an authoritative source.

          You never had anything to gain by choosing a different word in this discussion, your goal is to prove my chosen word wrong, and you’ve failed so far.

            Bro I was just trying to be helpful. I wasn’t trying to prove shit, I didn’t have any fucking goal or ulterior motive. Tell yourself whatever you need to get through the day though.

                Dude you’re really exasperating me by exacerbating this situation.
