“I can’t stand it anymore!”

I_can_t_stand_it_anymore_by_yourbloodynightmare

The prospect of another week of political turmoil in Brazil, makes me feel like saying:

I can’t stand it anymore!
Eu não aguento mais isso!

I can’t stand (something) anymore.
Literalmente: Eu não consigo suportar (alguma coisa) mais.
Também pode ser traduzido como “Eu não aguento/suporto mais (alguma coisa)”.

Examples:

I can’t stand this place anymore. Eu não aguento mais esse lugar.

I can’t stand her anymore. Eu não aguento mais ela.

I can’t stand these people anymore. Eu não aguento mais essas pessoas.

I can’t stand this job anymore. Eu não aguento mais esse emprego.

Há outras maneiras de dizer a mesma coisa:

I can’t bear __________ anymore.

I can’t take __________ anymore.

I can’t put up with __________ anymore.

Exemplos:

I can’t bear it anymore. Eu não aguento/suporto mais.

I can’t bear the suspense. Eu não aguento/suporto esse suspense.

I can’t bear that noise. Eunão aguento/suporto esse barulho.

I can’t take this house anymore. Eu não aguento mais essa casa.

I can’t take this song anymore. Eu não aguento mais essa música.

I can’t put up with this hot weather. Eu não estou aguentando esse calor.

I can’t put up with this noise! Eu não estou aguentando esse barulho!

Todas as estruturas são intercambiáveis, ou seja, você pode simplesmente trocá-las e usar qualquer uma. Use aquela com a qual você se sente mais comfortável.

Então, as expressões acima são usadas para você dizer que não aguenta algo ou alguém. Mas, para dizer que você está enjoado de algo a expressão mais comum em inglês é:

» I’m sick and tired of __________

E para dizer que está de saco cheio, diga:

» I’m fed up with __________

Okay! Got it? Well, I truly hope you don’t need to use them very often! Hehe…
