"In high dudgeon" có từ dudgeon là tức giận, phẫn nộ -> cụm từ này nghĩa là hết sức phẫn nộ, tức giận.

Ví dụ
President Donald Trump is preparing to exit his second arms-control treaty with Russia since taking the oath (lời tuyên thề) of office, and the opposition (đối phương) is already in high dudgeon.

Sadly, it has taken hundreds of COVID-19 deaths for Canada’s long-term residential care to earn another day or two in the spotlight. For the moment we are in high dudgeon, searching for answers. There will be inquiries (câu hỏi), finger-pointing and recommendations. Each outbreak and each death have unique elements (yếu tố), but one thing is certain: the calamity (tai họa) is a policy failure that has exposed our values and priorities and placed too many at the mercy of the pathogen (mầm bệnh).

Momentarily, it seemed we were back in time, when righteous (ngay thẳng) members of 'The Late Late Show' audiences were always in high dudgeon over matters of the flesh (con người).
