(colloquial) fiercely competitive or hooked on beating someone; having a strong rivalry. (of wine or food) sour, spoiled, or having turned into vinegar. (of the sea) choppy, rough. ==== Usage notes ==== In the colloquial senses of being annoyed, "salty," or competitive, this word functions as an adjective indicating a state of being, and is therefore almost exclusively used with the verb estar (e.g., estar picado). It is the resulting state of the pronominal verb picarse (to get annoyed/salty, to take offense). In colloquial speech, particularly in Andalusia and casual registers across Spain, the participle is frequently pronounced without the intervocalic "d" (e.g., estar picao). ==== Synonyms ==== (annoyed, salty): Synonyms: mosqueado, rebotado, chinado, (Latin America) ardido ==== Related terms ==== === Participle === picado (feminine picada, masculine plural picados, feminine plural picadas) past participle of picar === Further reading === “picado”, in Diccionario de la lengua española [Dictionary of the Spanish Language] (in Spanish), online version 23.8.1, Royal Spanish Academy [Spanish: Real Academia Española], 15 December 2025
