خلفية ثقافية
The French 'droit à la déconnexion' means employees aren't expected to be 'fatigués' by work emails at night. In Quebec, you might hear 'Je suis tanné', which specifically means 'I am tired of this/fed up'. People use 'ensouqué' to describe the specific tiredness caused by the heat or a heavy meal. The term 'fatigué' can sometimes imply being sick or physically unwell, not just sleepy.
Use 'un peu'
French people often soften 'Je suis fatigué' with 'un peu' (a bit) to sound less complaining.
Gender matters
Even though it sounds the same, always write 'fatiguée' if you are a woman. It shows you know your grammar!
