Bad-tempered or irritable:she got narky with this bumptious little prat giving her lectures...
Already I find it enormously liberating - I don't even feel narky or irritable.
I'm quite vocal on the pitch, and sometimes I can get a little bit narky with people, but it's all forgotten when the game's finished.
I'm narky because I know that at some point on the journey I'm going to drop the box or the box is going to break and my lovely candles will be ruined.
