معنی
To be extremely annoyed or tired of something.
زمینه فرهنگی
In Spain, people often touch their nose or forehead when saying this to emphasize the 'level' of their frustration. While understood, Mexicans might prefer 'estar hasta el copete' (copete = tuft of hair/forelock) for a similar level of frustration. Argentines might use 'estar podrido' (to be rotten/spoiled) to express that they are completely fed up with something. The use of body parts to measure emotion is a common linguistic trait across the Spanish-speaking world, reflecting a high-context, expressive communication style.
Use with 'Ya'
Adding 'Ya' (Ya estoy hasta las narices) makes you sound much more native and emphasizes that you've reached your limit.
Watch the 'c'
Remember that 'narices' is spelled with a 'c', not an 's', even though it sounds like an 's' in Latin America.
