The answer is SPLENETIC.
The word "splenetic" is derived from the Greek word "splen," which means spleen. Historically, the spleen was thought to be the organ responsible for producing black bile, one of the four bodily humors.
According to ancient Greek and Roman medicine, an excess of black bile led to melancholia or a choleric temperament, making a person irritable and peevish. Therefore, "splenetic" evolved to describe someone who is easily angered, irritable, or peevish, reflecting the historical belief in the spleen's influence on mood and temperament.
