Someone who’s “querulous” (KWER-uh-lus) – from the Latin for “to complain” – is habitually apt to find fault.
Example (as used by Maureen Howard in The New York Times): “Mam is a tragic figure when transported to New York by her successful sons [Frank and Malachy McCourt] – querulous, unable to get a decent cup of tea.”
