Post below, using it in a sentence! Try to avoid very simple sentences such as "He is obnoxious."

example: My obnoxious coworker never does all of her work.
Hello, and welcome to Apprendre l'anglais.
Bonjour, et bienvenue à Apprendre l'anglais.

John Doe

In a obnoxious mood, I do all my work.

Mistake?
I'm no hero. Never was, never will be.

mamour

Make the most of yourself,for that is all there is of you.

I would say something like "I'm in an obnoxious mood when I do all my work". The use of the word obnoxious is not a mistake, the tense of the sentence just sounds a little off.

mamour, you made me laugh! :D cops who give you fines are definitely obnoxious.
