chagrined

the word 'chagrin' entered english in the mid-17th century from french, where it originally meant 'melancholy, anxiety, or vexation'. the french term is believed to have derived from the turkish word 'şagrı', meaning 'rump of an animal' or 'rough leather', which was used to make a coarse, abrasive cloth. the semantic leap from a rough material to a state of mental irritation is thought to be metaphorical, suggesting a feeling that is grating or abrasive to one's spirit. the addition of the common english suffix '-ed' creates the participial adjective or past tense verb form, 'chagrined', which describes the state of having been afflicted with such vexation or humiliation.
