Wroth comes from the Old English word 'wrao' (angry, tomented, twisted) 

It may have then come from Middle English words wraththe or wreththe anger, fury, rage, animosity, hostility, deadly sin of wrath)

Wroth is considered an  old-fashioned way to say 'irate' or 'infuriated'.

As Bill W and drpaladin stated, this 'Word of the Day', is old fashioned, archaic and as with all emotions, the authors amongst you have a wide variety of words to use in its place. The following offers you a possible list of 161 synonyms and similar words to choose from(and antonyms):

In the end, I am reminded of one of the first principles of instruction taught to me, before I stood up in front of my very first class of students/recruits.

OMG, that was over fifty years ago!! No bells or whistles, song or dance needed!  Just keep it, K.I.S.S. ( Keep It Simple Stupid ).
