Word origin
The word 'irritator' is derived from the Latin verb 'irritare', which means 'to excite or provoke'. It first appeared in English in the late 16th century. Over time, the term evolved to describe a person who intentionally annoys or provokes others. In the field of paleontology, 'Irritator' was chosen as the genus name for a spinosaurid dinosaur due to its distinctive characteristics resembling a crocodile. The word continues to be used in both contexts to this day.
