Enfastarse

Enfastarse is a Spanish verb that describes the feeling of becoming fed up, annoyed, or exasperated with a person or situation. It conveys a sense of weariness and a desire for something to stop or change due to prolonged irritation. The term often implies a buildup of frustration that has reached a limit.

The verb is typically used in the reflexive form, "enfastiarse," meaning "to become fed up." For example, one might say "Me he enfastiado de esperar" which translates to "I have become fed up with waiting." The cause of this feeling can range from minor annoyances that accumulate over time to more significant sources of distress.

The nuance of "enfastarse" suggests a more intense and prolonged irritation than simple annoyance. It implies a reached breaking point where patience has worn thin. The feeling is often accompanied by a desire to distance oneself from the source of frustration or to demand a resolution.

While there isn't a direct single-word English equivalent that perfectly captures every shade of meaning, "to get fed up," "to become exasperated," or "to be sick and tired of" are close translations. The specific context will determine the most appropriate English phrasing.
