Regional synonyms

A Paraguayan word for someone who is unpleasant, grumpy, or just plain bad-tempered by nature. The argel snaps at people, has no patience, and radiates a sour energy that makes you want to choose a different line at the supermarket or a different window at the bank. "Qué argel" is the standard Paraguayan sigh when you run into one.
