If you’re tired, you’re not alone. I bet at least 50% of this post’s readers can say:
[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/עייף-#.m4a” /]אני עייף.
I’m tired. (if they’re male)
or
[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/עייף-#.m4a” /]אני עייפה.
I’m tired. (if they’re female)
How about tiredness? In English we don’t use it so much, but in Hebrew we do.
The word is עייפות[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/עייף-#.m4a” /], for example:
[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/עייף-#.m4a” /]אני לא מצליחה לתפקד מרוב עייפות.
I (a female) can’t function because I’m so tired (literally, from so much tiredness).
