意味
To become angry or irritable quickly.
文化的背景
In Spain, 'leche' is used in dozens of expressions. It is considered colloquial but not necessarily 'bad language' in most contexts, though it's informal. It's a staple of daily conversation. In Mexico, 'mala leche' is more often used to describe someone's bad intentions or malice. If someone says 'lo hizo con mala leche,' they mean it was done to cause harm. In Argentina and Uruguay, 'mala leche' is frequently synonymous with 'mala suerte' (bad luck). '¡Qué mala leche!' is a common exclamation when something goes wrong. Similar to Argentina, it can mean bad luck, but it is also used to describe a 'mean' person (tener mala leche).
The 'Uva' Alternative
If you want to sound even more like a local in Spain, swap 'leche' for 'uva'. It's slightly more playful.
Watch the Register
Don't use this with your boss unless you have a very close, informal relationship. Stick to 'enfadarse' in meetings.

よくある質問

No, that's not a standard expression. Use 'ponerse de buen humor' or 'alegrarse'.
