I scold, being angry (5)
I believe the answer is:
irate
'angry' is the definition.
(irate can mean angry or annoyed)
'i scold' is the wordplay.
'scold' becomes 'rate' (I've seen this in another clue).
'i'+'rate'='IRATE'
'being' is the link.
(Other definitions for irate that I've seen before include "having got in wax" , "Indignant, angry" , "will be up in arms" , "Angry - furious" , "Infuriated" .)
