Questions & Answers about Toàn cơ thể đang mệt.

What does Toàn cơ thể mean literally?

Toàn cơ thể literally means the entire body or the whole body.

• toàn = whole, entire
• cơ thể = body

So the phrase points to the body as a whole, not just one part like the head, arms, or legs.

What does đang mệt mean?

đang mệt means is tired, is feeling tired, or is currently tired.

• mệt = tired, fatigued, exhausted
• đang marks an ongoing or current state/action

So đang mệt suggests that the tiredness is happening right now.

Why is there no word for my in this sentence?

Vietnamese often leaves out possessive words like my, your, or his/her when the meaning is clear from context.

So Toàn cơ thể đang mệt can naturally be understood as:

• My whole body is tired
• The whole body is tired

depending on the situation.

In English, you usually need my. In Vietnamese, it is often unnecessary if everyone already knows whose body is being talked about.

Is mệt a verb or an adjective here?
