    sich verarscht fühlen

    Context/ examples
    Er fühlte sich ziemlich verarscht:
    He felt quite twitted?

    Es soll schon eine sehr deutliche Aussage sein, die aber trotzdem nicht vulgär klingen darf.

    'he felt twitted' ist völlig falsch und ist nicht mal ein Wort, was existiert. 'He felt a twit' ginge da noch am ehesten.

    Ups.....

    Habe den Ausdruck _to twit so._ im LEO gefunden und daraus diese Konstruktion gemacht.
    Völlig falsch? Okay!


    'He felt a twit_ würdest du dann also _he felt a fool_ vorziehen?

    Kommt damit genügend zum Ausdruck, dass man sich von jemand anderem (unangenehm) verarscht fühlt?

    He felt like they were making a fool of him.

    "He felt a twit" means that he felt stupid, perhaps because he did something stupid.

    There are other phrases but it depends on *how* the person was being made a fool of. If he was being taken for a ride, then the other person was tricking him; if the wool was being pulled over his eyes they were hiding something from him, etc.
