Extremely tired.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
The Dutch value 'nuchterheid' (soberness). Being 'kapot' is an honest admission of hard work, which is respected. In Flanders, 'kapot' is used similarly, but you might also hear 'versleten' (worn out) used more frequently in some regions. In these regions, Dutch is often mixed with local languages. 'Kapot' remains common, but the intonation might be more melodic and dramatic. Younger people use 'kapot' as an intensifier for many things, not just tiredness. 'Kapot grappig' means 'extremely funny'.
Add 'Helemaal'
To sound like a native, add 'helemaal' (completely) before 'kapot'. It's the most natural way to say it.
Not for the Boss
Keep this phrase for friends. With your boss, stick to 'moe' or 'vermoeid'.
