Mad, angry, bother, upset

[lee ying]

what´s the difference between these words?
when I have to use each?

Hi Lee Ying - working on your question - did you perhaps mean "bothered"? If all four words were adjectives, shades of meaning
could be made clear.

mad - enojado (tambien significa loco) o con rabia
angry - enfado
bothered - molestado
upset - alborotado

[lee ying]

all these word must be used with get? I´m getting mad, I am getting angry, that´s right?

yep. usually mad is for 'insane', angry sounds better to me
