When you haven't slept enough, or you can't sleep, you are بیخواب (bee-khaab). It's an adjective, so you use it to describe a person.
For example, if your friend looks tired, you can ask them, "Are you بیخواب?" meaning "Are you sleepless?"
It literally means "without sleep." بی- (bee-) means "without," and خواب (khaab) means "sleep."
So next time you pull an all-nighter, you can say, "I am بیخواب!"
When you haven't slept enough, or you can't sleep, you are بیخواب (bee-khaab).
This adjective literally means 'without sleep' (بی meaning 'without' and خواب meaning 'sleep').
For example, if someone looks tired, you can ask them, 'آیا تو بیخواب هستی؟' (Are you sleepless/suffering from lack of sleep?)
Or you might say, 'من بیخواب هستم چون دیشب خوب نخوابیدم.' (I am sleepless because I didn't sleep well last night.)
When you're learning Persian at the B1 level, you're starting to have more complex conversations. Understanding words like بیخواب (bi-khâb) is really helpful here. It's an adjective you can use to describe yourself or someone else when you haven't had enough sleep.
This word is straightforward and directly translates to 'sleepless' or 'insomniac' in English. Knowing this allows you to express common feelings and states in Persian. For instance, you can say 'I am sleepless' or 'He is sleepless' quite easily.
It’s a practical word that you’ll encounter in everyday situations, whether you're reading a simple story or talking about how you feel. Adding such words to your vocabulary helps you build more natural and accurate sentences.
Focus on using words like this in context to really solidify your understanding and make your Persian sound more fluent.
When someone is بیخواب (bi-khâb), it means they are experiencing sleeplessness or insomnia. It’s an adjective used to describe a person who is unable to sleep or has not slept. This word specifically refers to the state of being without sleep, often due to an inability to fall asleep or stay asleep. For example, if you stayed up all night studying, you would be بیخواب.
When we describe someone as بیخواب (bi-khaab), it means they are suffering from a lack of sleep. It's often used to describe a temporary state of not being able to sleep or having recently experienced a sleepless night. You might hear someone say, "من امروز صبح بیخواب بودم" (man emrooz sobh bi-khaab boodam), meaning "I was sleepless this morning." This word effectively conveys the feeling of being awake when one wishes to be asleep, or the state of having gone without sleep for a significant period. It's a common and practical term to express this condition in everyday Persian.
§ What does بیخواب mean?
- DEFINITION
- Suffering from a lack of sleep; sleepless.
The Persian word بیخواب (bi-khâb) literally means “without sleep.” It's used to describe someone who is sleepless, or who is suffering from a lack of sleep. Think of it like the English word "sleepless" or "insomniac." It's an adjective, so it describes a person or an animal that is not getting enough sleep.
§ When do people use it?
You use بیخواب (bi-khâb) when you want to express that someone hasn't slept, is finding it hard to sleep, or is generally suffering from a lack of sleep. It's a common word in everyday conversation. Here are some situations where you might hear or use it:
- Describing your own state: If you pulled an all-nighter studying, you'd say you're بیخواب.
- Talking about someone else: If your friend looks tired because they haven't slept, you can describe them as بیخواب.
- Referring to a specific night: You can also use it to describe a night where you didn't sleep well.
It's pretty straightforward. If sleep is missing, بیخواب is the word you need. It's not usually used in a very formal context, but it's perfectly acceptable in most social situations.
§ Examples of بیخواب in sentences
Let's look at some examples to help you understand how to use بیخواب naturally.
من امروز خیلی بیخوابم.
- HINT
- I am very sleepless today. / I haven't slept much today.
چرا اینقدر بیخواب به نظر میرسی؟
- HINT
- Why do you look so sleepless? / Why do you look like you haven't slept?
بعد از شب بیخوابی، صبحانه خوردم.
- HINT
- After a sleepless night, I ate breakfast. (Note: Here, بیخوابی (bi-khâbi) is the noun form, meaning sleeplessness or insomnia).
As you can see, it's quite flexible. You can use it directly to describe someone, or you can talk about a 'sleepless night' using the noun form بیخوابی. We'll cover the noun form in more detail later, but it's good to be aware of it now.
§ Where You'll Hear 'بیخواب' (Bikhab)
You're learning Persian, which means you want to understand how people actually speak. The word 'بیخواب' (bikhab) is super practical because lack of sleep is a common human experience. You'll hear it in many everyday situations. Let's break down where you're most likely to encounter it.
- DEFINITION
- Suffering from a lack of sleep.
Think about it: who hasn't been 'بیخواب' at some point? Because it's so common, you'll hear this word from friends, family, and even in more formal settings. Here are some common places:
- At Work: Ever had a late night finishing a project? Your colleagues might comment on you being 'بیخواب'.
- At School/University: Students often pull all-nighters. It's a common complaint among them.
- In Casual Conversation: When friends are talking about their day, 'بیخواب' comes up a lot.
- In News/Media: Sometimes, news reports might discuss issues like sleep deprivation, or someone being 'بیخواب' due to stress or a specific event.
Let's look at some examples to show you how it's used in real-life contexts. Pay attention to how natural it sounds.
از دیشب بیخواب شدم.
This literally means, "From last night, I became sleepless." You could translate it as "I've been sleepless since last night" or "I haven't slept since last night." This is a very common way to express it.
چرا اینقدر بیخواب به نظر میرسی؟
This translates to, "Why do you look so sleepless?" or "Why do you look like you haven't slept much?" It's a direct observation about someone's appearance.
درسها منو بیخواب کرده.
Here, 'درسها منو بیخواب کرده' means "My studies have made me sleepless." This is a typical student complaint. You can substitute 'درسها' (studies) with anything that causes lack of sleep, like 'کار' (work) or 'بچهها' (kids).
Understanding these common scenarios will help you recognize and use 'بیخواب' naturally. It's a word that connects to universal experiences, making it highly useful in your Persian conversations. Don't be 'بیخواب' when learning it!

Often confused with 'بیخواب' (sleepless) because both relate to sleep, but 'خوابالو' means sleepy or drowsy, not lacking sleep.
'بیخواب' means someone hasn't slept, while 'خوابالو' means someone is tired and wants to sleep.
بعد از کار طولانی خیلی خوابالو هستم. (After a long day of work, I am very sleepy.)
Can be confused as both 'بیخواب' and 'کسل' (bored/listless) can result in a lack of energy, but the core meaning is different.
'بیخواب' specifically refers to the state of not having slept, whereas 'کسل' describes a general feeling of boredom or lethargy, which might or might not be due to lack of sleep.
من از این فیلم کسل شدم. (I got bored of this movie.)
Both 'بیخواب' and 'بیدار' (awake) describe a state of not sleeping, but 'بیدار' is a neutral term for being awake, while 'بیخواب' implies a negative state of suffering from lack of sleep.

من هر روز ساعت ۶ صبح بیدار میشوم. (I wake up at 6 AM every day.)
Being 'بیخواب' (sleepless) often leads to being 'خسته' (tired), so they are closely related but not interchangeable.
'بیخواب' is the cause (lack of sleep), and 'خسته' is the effect (feeling tired). One can be tired without being sleepless, and one can be sleepless without yet feeling extremely tired.
بعد از دویدن، پاهایم خسته شدند. (After running, my legs got tired.)
Both 'بیخواب' and 'بیحال' (lethargic/weak) describe a state of low energy, but 'بیحال' is a more general term.
'بیخواب' specifically points to the lack of sleep as the reason for low energy. 'بیحال' can be caused by various factors like illness, hunger, or lack of sleep.
بعد از بیماری، کمی بیحال بودم. (After being sick, I was a little lethargic.)

Understanding بیخواب
The word بیخواب (bi-khāb) is an adjective in Persian, meaning 'sleepless' or 'suffering from a lack of sleep.' It's useful to know this term because feeling tired or sleep-deprived is a common human experience, and you'll likely encounter or need to express it.
Breaking Down the Word
بی (bi-) is a common Persian prefix meaning 'without' or 'lack of.' خواب (khāb) means 'sleep.' So, literally, بیخواب means 'without sleep.' This understanding helps in deciphering other Persian words with similar prefixes.
Using in a Sentence
You can use بیخواب to describe someone who hasn't slept well. For example, 'من بیخواب هستم' (man bi-khāb hastam) translates to 'I am sleepless' or 'I haven't slept.' The verb 'هستم' (hastam) means 'I am'.
Common Phrases with بیخواب
A frequent phrase is 'شب بیخوابی' (shab bi-khābi), meaning 'a sleepless night.' The noun form بیخوابی (bi-khābi) means 'sleeplessness' or 'insomnia.' So, 'من بیخوابی دارم' (man bi-khābi dāram) means 'I have insomnia' or 'I have sleeplessness'.
Adjective Placement
Like many Persian adjectives, بیخواب usually comes after the noun it describes, or it can be used predicatively with a verb like 'بودن' (boodan - to be). For instance, 'مرد بیخواب' (mard-e bi-khāb) means 'the sleepless man'.
Expressing Cause of Sleeplessness
If you want to say *why* someone is sleepless, you can add a prepositional phrase. For example, 'او از نگرانی بیخواب است' (oo az negarāni bi-khāb ast) means 'He is sleepless from worry.' نگرانی (negarāni) means 'worry'.
Distinguishing from Tired
While related, بیخواب isn't exactly the same as 'tired.' 'Tired' is more generally 'خسته' (khaste). بیخواب specifically refers to the lack of sleep as the cause of the tiredness. You can be خسته without being بیخواب.
Synonyms and Related Terms
There aren't many direct synonyms for بیخواب that are B1 level. However, understanding its root خواب (sleep) and its opposite بیدار (bidār - awake) will enhance your vocabulary related to rest.
Pronunciation Practice
Pay attention to the pronunciation: 'bi' as in 'bee,' and 'khāb' where 'kh' is a guttural sound similar to the 'ch' in Scottish 'loch.' Practice saying it: بیخواب (bi-khāb).
Real-world Context
Imagine a friend telling you, 'من دیشب خوب نخوابیدم، الان خیلی بیخواب هستم.' (man dishāb khoob nakhābidam, alān kheyli bi-khāb hastam.) This means 'I didn't sleep well last night, now I am very sleepless/sleep-deprived.' This is a very common and practical way to use the word.
자주 묻는 질문
10 질문The word for 'insomniac' is بیخواب (bi-khaab). It literally means 'without sleep' and can be used as an adjective to describe someone who is suffering from a lack of sleep. For example, 'I am an insomniac' would be 'من بیخواب هستم' (man bi-khaab hastam).
No, بیخواب (bi-khaab) specifically refers to a living being, typically a person, who is suffering from a lack of sleep. You wouldn't use it to describe an inanimate object.
While بیخواب (bi-khaab) is an adjective, you can use the verb 'بودن' (to be) with it to form phrases like 'بیخواب شدن' (bi-khaab shodan) which means 'to become sleepless' or 'to suffer from lack of sleep'. For example, 'I became sleepless last night' would be 'من دیشب بیخواب شدم' (man dish_ab bi-khaab shodam).
Good question! بیخواب (bi-khaab) means 'sleepless' or 'suffering from lack of sleep', implying you haven't slept or can't sleep. خوابآلود (khaab-aalood) means 'sleepy' or 'drowsy', implying you've had some sleep but are still tired and want to sleep more. They describe different states.
You can say 'من اصلا بیخواب بودم' (man aslan bi-khaab boodam), which means 'I was completely sleepless.' Or, more commonly, 'من اصلا نخوابیدم' (man aslan nakh_aabidam), which directly means 'I didn't sleep at all.'
Some common phrases include:
- بیخوابی کشیدن (bi-khaabi keshidan): to suffer from sleeplessness
- بیخوابی شبانه (bi-khaabi shabaaneh): nightly sleeplessness/insomnia
- شبهای بیخوابی (shab-haa-ye bi-khaabi): sleepless nights
بیخواب (bi-khaab) is a neutral word and can be used in both formal and informal contexts. It's a standard term to describe someone suffering from a lack of sleep.
Yes, you can! You'd typically say 'شب بیخواب' (shab-e bi-khaab) for 'a sleepless night'. For example, 'I had a sleepless night' would be 'من یک شب بیخواب داشتم' (man yek shab-e bi-khaab daashtam).
Since بیخواب (bi-khaab) is an adjective, it doesn't directly have a plural form in the same way nouns do. When referring to multiple sleepless people, you would say 'افراد بیخواب' (afraad-e bi-khaab) meaning 'sleepless individuals', or 'کسانی که بیخواب هستند' (kasaani keh bi-khaab hastand) meaning 'those who are sleepless'.
No, in its common usage, بیخواب (bi-khaab) pretty exclusively refers to the state of suffering from a lack of sleep or being sleepless. Its meaning is quite direct and focused.
