Questions & Answers about من از سفر خسته هستم.
Is az used exactly like "from" in English here?
In this sentence, yes! The preposition az means "from" and is used here to show the cause or source of your tiredness (tired from the trip). You will also use az to talk about physical movement from a place, or to say what country you are from.
Why does "from the trip" (az safar) come before "tired" (khaste)?
Farsi puts the verb at the very end of the sentence. Here, the verb is hastam (am), and it works closely with the adjective khaste (tired). Because of this strict verb-at-the-end rule, extra details like prepositional phrases (az safar) are placed earlier in the sentence, between the subject and the adjective.
Do I have to include man at the beginning of the sentence?
No, you don't! Because the verb hastam ends with the -am suffix, it already tells the listener that the subject is "I". Just saying az safar khaste hastam is perfectly natural and very common in everyday Farsi.
How would this sentence sound in casual, spoken Farsi?
In spoken conversation, the adjective khaste and the verb hastam are usually squeezed together into a single word: khastam. So you will most often hear native speakers say: man az safar khastam.
