今天的内容是教英语俚语怎么说，今天学习的一个俚语是，我要累死了，累坏了怎么说

 

Maura: And today’s expressions are ways to say that you are tired.

 

Harp: Yes, different ways of saying that you’re very tired.

 

Maura: And then we’ll also tell you some expressions you can use to say that you’ve slept well, so after you were tired and went to sleep, how you can say that you had a good sleep.

 

Harp: All right, so let’s start with slang ways to say that you’re really tired.

 

Maura: Right. Well first of all, you can say I’m dead, which means you’re really tired.

 

Harp: Yeah, I’m dead tired, or I’m dead.

 

Maura: Yeah. You can say either of those and it means you’re really tired. You could also say that you’re beat and this, again, is another slang way that we say we’re really tired.

 

Harp: Yeah, to say that you’re beat means you’re really tired, you’re really exhausted. It’s a slang way of saying it.

 

Maura: Right. So, let’s give a dialogue example with this slang.

 

Harp: OK, let’s do it.

 

Maura: So, Jane, how’re you feeling today? How was work? Harp: I’m beat.

 

Maura: I guess you had a hard day at work.

 

Harp: I’m so tired. I feel dead tired right now.

 

Maura: Well, are you gonna go to bed? Harp: I have to. I can’t do anything else. I’m so tired. Maura: OK, well, goodnight.

 

Harp: Goodnight.

 

Maura: OK, so there’s one example when you could say that you’re dead or you’re beat. But of course you can use it any time you feel tired: in the night, in the morning, in the middle of the day.
