English term

passive-aggressive behavior

Non-PRO English to Spanish Social Sciences General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters
A person with passive-aggressive behavior may oppose the plan, but instead of voicing their opinion, they say that they agree with it. Since they’re actually against the plan, however, they resist following it. They may purposely miss deadlines, turn up late to meetings, and undermine the plan in other ways.
