+ Lewis & Short note that it is classical and especially frequent in Cicero.^(Lewis & Short 1879) It is used absolutely, with an ablative of the cause, with ''quod'' or ''sī'', and with ''cum'' of quarrelling with someone, as when Cicero writes that Scipio ''stomacharētur cum C. Metellō''.^(Lewis & Short 1879)^(Georges 1913) With a neuter pronoun as object it means to be indignant at something: Cicero has ''stomachor omnia'', “everything makes me angry”, and Augustus, in a letter quoted by Suetonius, ''sī quid stomachor''.^(OLD 2012)^(Lewis & Short 1879) Horace writes of a man who fumes over a badly cut nail.^(Lewis & Short 1879)^(Conte 2010) Döderlein groups it with ''īrāscor'' and ''indignor'' as loud displeasure, against the silent displeasure of ''succēnseō''.^(Döderlein 1874) Later Latin still used it: Apuleius has Venus ''stomachāta'',^(Lewis & Short 1879)^(Georges 1913) Augustine uses it,^(Georges 1913) and he also has a rare adverb ''stomachanter'', “peevishly”.^(Lewis & Short 1879)
