How to translate? (ru-en)

да, больше можете мне не писать. Надоело отвечать на ваши сообщения когда у меня есть другие дела

    Yeah, you can stop texting me now. I’m sick (and tired) of having to answer your texts when I have things to do.

Uly, sometimes we use да when we want to add some point during a conversation - something that hits us.
BTW? 🤔

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 4 years ago

That’s exactly the force of YEAH, (that’s why I didn’t use YES)

Tatiana Gerasimenkoadded a comment 4 years ago

Почему-то меня рассмешил этот вопрос. Открываю и не могу удержаться от смеха. 😹

For some reason, I pictured Zoya telling someone off 😂

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 4 years ago

Какая ещё здесь Зоя?

Tatiana Gerasimenkoadded a comment 4 years ago

Эх, это я хотела написать: А кто такая Зоя? Какая ещё Зоя? 😂

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 4 years ago

Our one and only Mme. Zoya de St. Exupéry - to know her is to love her 💕

Russ Sadded a comment 4 years ago

worth mentioning that the original can also imply emails, not just the text message. In this case "stop texting" wouldn't sound good. Ideally would be "stop texting/emailing me..."

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 4 years ago

Or “stop writing me”

Russ Sadded a comment 4 years ago

yep, “stop writing me” would cover both cases.

Russ Sadded a comment 4 years ago

Also, Uly, would it be correct to say:
I’m sick (and tired) to answer your texts when I have things to do?
What's the difference if we skip "of having"? How does it change the meaning?

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 4 years ago

Yes, you can say: I’m sick and tired OF ANSWERING your texts when I have things to do. But with HAVING, you express the fact that you HAVE TO leave what you’re doing to answer the texts.

Russ Sadded a comment 4 years ago

that's clear. But why saying "...tired to answer your texts..." is not good?

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 4 years ago

Yes, it’s good - but it just means you don’t like her texts. You have to decide - do you not like answering the texts, or do you not like having to drop everything to answer the texts when you have other things to do.

Russ Sadded a comment 4 years ago

I understand now, thank you!
