chagrin 里有 grin（笑），但懊恼时露出的只是苦笑——记住：chagrin 是懊恼，不是开心笑。
语域：formal 常见场景：formal writing、literary prose、narration of personal feelings 本分析针对“懊恼/屈辱”这一义项。chagrin 多用于正式或书面语，口语中比较少见；常用于描述因失败、未被赏识或犯错而产生的不快情绪。另一义项“粗面皮革”是专业用语，和这里的用法不同。
发音说明：根据给出的音标，chagrin 读作 /ˈʃæɡrɪn/（重音在第一音节）。其中 ch 发 /ʃ/，与 machine、chute 中的 ch 相同；首音节 /ʃæɡ/ 与 shag 的发音相同；词尾 /ɡrɪn/ 与 grin 的后半部分相同，但因重音不同，两者不押韵。注意 green、grain 与 grin 拼写相似，但分别读 /ɡriːn/ 和 /ɡreɪn/，元音与 grin 不同，应避免混淆。
