Questions & Answers about Неужели тебе тоже надоело читать грубые комментарии под постами?
Неужели introduces a question with surprise / disbelief, like “Really? Can it be that…?” It often implies the speaker didn’t expect the answer to be “yes”.
- Неужели тебе тоже надоело…? ≈ “Really, you’re tired of … too?” Comparison:
- Правда? is more neutral: “Is it true?” / “Really?”
- Разве…? also suggests surprise, but often with a shade of “But isn’t it the case that…?” or “I thought the opposite”.
With надоесть (“to become annoying / to get tiresome”), Russian commonly uses a structure like:
- (кому?) надоело (что делать?) So the person who feels “fed up” is in the dative: мне / тебе / ему / ей / нам / вам / им. Example pattern:
- Мне надоело ждать. = “I’m tired of waiting.”
Russian often expresses a current state (“I’m sick of it now”) with надоело (past neuter), because the idea is “it has become tiresome (by now)”. So тебе надоело читать… literally is like “it got boring/annoying for you to read… (and it remains so now).”
After надоело, an infinitive often names the activity that has become tiresome:
- надоело + infinitive = “to be tired of doing …”
So читать is an infinitive complement (“to read”).
You can also have a noun instead: - Мне надоели эти разговоры. (“These conversations annoy me / I’m tired of these conversations.”)
Because надоело here agrees with an implicit neuter “it” / “this” (the situation/activity), not with комментарии. The sentence is built around the infinitive:
- тебе надоело (что?) читать… → neuter singular надоело If you make комментарии the grammatical subject, then it changes:
- Тебе надоели грубые комментарии. (“You’re tired of rude comments.”) → plural надоели
Тоже means “also / too” and here links you to someone else who is tired of it.
- Неужели тебе тоже надоело…? = “Are you also tired of…?” Position is flexible, but it slightly changes emphasis:
- Неужели тебе тоже надоело…? (you too, like me/others)
- Неужели тебе надоело тоже читать…? (tired of also reading, among other things—less common here)
Because читать (“to read”) takes a direct object in the accusative:
- читать (что?) комментарии For inanimate plural nouns, accusative plural is the same as nominative plural, so комментарии looks unchanged.
Грубый covers “rude / грубо́” in the sense of impolite, offensive, disrespectful. Depending on context, it can also suggest “crude” or “harsh,” but with comments online it usually means “rude/offensive comments.”
The preposition под with the meaning “under/below (location)” requires the instrumental case:
- под (чем?) постами (instrumental plural of пост) So под постами = “under posts,” i.e., “in the comments under posts.”
In интернет-context it idiomatically means “in the comments under posts,” i.e., the thread below a post. Russian uses the spatial metaphor под (“below”) the same way English says “under a post.”
Word order is flexible, but changes emphasis and naturalness. Common/natural:
- Неужели тебе тоже надоело читать…? (standard; “you too?”) Also possible:
- Неужели тебе надоело читать… тоже? (possible, but the final тоже can sound a bit afterthought-like) Less natural:
- Неужели тоже тебе… (possible in poetry/strong emphasis, but marked)
They’re related but not identical:
- надоело = “fed up / sick of / tired of (because it’s annoying/boring)”
- устал = “tired” in the sense of fatigue (physically/mentally), not necessarily annoyance
So тебе надоело читать грубые комментарии implies irritation/annoyance from repeated exposure, not just being sleepy or exhausted.
