一、下面我們來看看tired有幾種含義 

adj.

1.疲勞的，累的 feeling that you would like to sleep or rest; needing rest

Man was made at the end of the week’s work when god was tired.

人類是上帝在工作了一週已經疲勞的時候創造出來的。

2.厭倦的，厭煩的 feeling that you have had enough of sb / sth because you no longer find them / it interesting or because they make you angry or unhappy

二、詞義辨析：還有什麼詞能表示“疲倦的”的意思呢？

weary, tired

這兩個形容詞均有“累的，疲乏的”之意。

weary側重指由於連續不斷進行某項活動而造成的疲勞，以致感到厭煩。

tired普通用詞，泛指因工作緊張，勞動過度，休息不足等而引起的疲乏。

三、學會tired的用法了嗎？來做個填詞遊戲吧

他拖着疲倦的步子慢慢地走着。
