"tired of" 是英语中常用的固定短语,核心含义是:对……感到厌倦/厌烦;对……失去兴趣(强调心理上的“腻烦”,而非身体上的“疲劳”)。
"tired of" 中的 of 是介词,因此后面需接名词、代词或动名词(doing),不能接动词原形。
常见结构:
1、 be tired of + 名词/代词:表示“对(某人/某物)感到厌倦”
2、 be tired of + 动名词(doing):表示“对(做某事)感到厌倦”
3、 get tired of...:强调“逐渐变得厌倦”(更突出变化过程)
1、 接名词/代词:
I'm tired of this rainy weather.(我厌倦了这种多雨的天气。)
She's tired of his endless complaints.(她厌烦了他没完没了的抱怨。)
2、 接动名词(doing):
He's tired of working overtime every week.(他厌倦了每周加班。)
Are you tired of eating fast food every day?(你厌倦了每天吃快餐吗?)
3、 get tired of...(逐渐厌倦):
I got tired of waiting for her, so I left.(我等她等得不耐烦了,所以走了。)
Kids often get tired of toys quickly.(孩子们通常很快就会对玩具失去兴趣。)
tired of:心理上的“厌倦”(= bored with)
例:I'm tired of this game.(我腻了这个游戏。)
tired from:身体上的“因……而疲劳”(= exhausted because of)
例:I'm tired from running 5 kilometers.(我跑了5公里,累坏了。)
总结:"tired of" 重点在“心理厌倦”,后接名词/代词/动名词;若表示“身体疲劳”,则用"tired from"。
