How To Say I’m Tired in Korean
피곤해요
[pigo-neyo]
I’m tired
Basic form : 피곤하다
반말(informal non-honorific) form : 피곤해
Negative form with 해요 speech style : 안피곤해요
피곤하다 means ‘tired’ in Korean but it can be different a bit to ‘tired’. You can use 피곤하다 when you have no more energy for a day or when you are mentally tired. 피곤하다 isn’t 100% natural to describe a temporary physical tiredness or lack of stamina after some exercises. Well… it can be natural though if you have no more energy for a day after working out at night.
