Hello, everyone.
I came across three words in my dictionary today, which were acerbic, acidulous and acrid. Accord to my oxford dictionary, they can all be used to refer to a kind of manner that's considered "bitter".
I can't imagine what a "bitter" manner would be like. Does it simply mean rude?
Besides, are these three words commonly used?
Many thanks
Richard
