Tired of everything? Can’t take it anymore? Learn to say it in Chinese!

All of us have been in a situation when there’s so much stress around that you can’t take it anymore 😣⠀

How to express yourself in Chinese?

💡 Example #1

Imagine working really hard, staying late in the office every day, dealing with tons of stuff… and still not getting paid well 💸

You go through all this stress and still don’t make as much money as you spend. And by the end of the month, you’re totally broke.

🔸 我每天工作压力很大。现在赚的钱都不够花的。到月底就要吃土…
🔸 Wǒ měitiān gōngzuò yālì hěn dà. Xiànzài zhuàn de qián dōu bù gòu huā de. Dào yuèdǐ jiù yào chītǔ…
🔸 I work under a lot of stress every day. But I don’t make as much money as I spend now. By the end of the month, I’m totally broke…

How can you describe your feelings?

🔸 我太难了!
🔸 Wǒ tài nán le!
🔸 I can’t take it anymore!

 

💡 Example #2

Imagine living in a shared apartment, taking the subway every day to go to work, and spending the weekends on your own having no one to go out with… 😔

You have no house, no car, no money… And – above this all! – you can’t find a girlfriend/boyfriend.

🔸 我没钱,没房,没车,找不到女朋友…
🔸 Wǒ méi qián, méi fáng, méi chē, zhǎobudào nǚ péngyou…
🔸 I have no money, no house, no car, can’t find a girlfriend…
