So, you’re tired and you wanna be able to describe it. In this video I’ll look at ten different ways to say that you’re tired in English, and I’m actually kind of tired as I’m making this video so there’s a good chance I’ll probably mess things up a little bit, but let’s go through them. Number 1, you can simply say, “I’m tired. I’m very tired, it’s been a long day and I’m really really tired.” All of those would be great ways to let someone know that you’re tired. Another way to say that you’re tired is to say, “I’m worn out.” So if you think about a machine, when a machine runs for a long time it gets worn out. In English you can describe yourself as being worn out. It’s been a long day, I’m worn out. I can’t wait to go home. I’m worn out. A third way to say that you’re tired is to say, “I’m pooped.” And this sounds kind of funny because I’m not sure if you know yet what poop is. When you eat food eventually you have to poop. But we do in English when we’re describing being tired say, “I’m pooped.” I’m totally pooped right now, because I worked so hard today I’m now totally pooped. Or I’m pooped out. Both of those would also be ways to describe being tired, and I’m not joking we do actually say that in English. Hah, phew, I’m pooped. Another way to say that you’re tired in English is to simply say, “I’m sleepy.” There’s a bit of a difference here though, when I’m when I say I’m tired it doesn’t necessarily mean that I want to go to sleep, but when I say I’m sleepy, it usually means I’m having trouble keeping my eyes open. Maybe my head is nodding a little bit, when I’m supposed to stay awake so to say that you’re tired you can also say, “I’m sleepy.” Another way to say you’re tired in English is to say, “I’m whipped.” I’m just completely whipped, and whoo, I had a really long day, I, I worked super hard and I’m just whipped. **Note: All images used under: CC0 License ✓ Free for personal and commercial use ✓ No attribution required From pexels.com or pixabay.com
