"Wedi blino"

Translation: Tired

[AlbiMultilingue]

why are the words separed? isn't it one word?

[KhaiQ-N]

yes, thats what I need to know

[mizinamo]

No, it is two words.

The literal translation would be a short phrase, but it's used the way "tired" is in English.

[EFHeras]

So if I were to use it in a sentence, would it be "Wedi blino dw i"?

[rmcode]

You could say it that way for emphasis, or dw i wedi blino.

[japhes]

You still say, " dw i wedi blino"

[4.leaf.clover]

excuse me, Wedi Blino does mean "cansado"? Tired : Whos needs to rest or sleep?

[mizinamo]

Yes :)

[dougie1111]

So when I added 'I am tired' it said incorrect its just 'tired'. Why does the floating hint tell me something different?

This is beta. You can report that! :)

[dougie1111]

I just thought it was me not understanding something

[AlexDiGioi]

Is there a grammatical reason the word is separated? For example, are there other words with wedi or blino as a part of them?

[eirlana]

we later learn 'wedi' to mean have...so I'd imagine this means something like 'have tiredness'.

[senathesquid]

Wouldn't take "sleepy"

[deVignolles]

What does "wedi blino" mean exactly, word by word?

[mizinamo]

literally, "after tiring"; slightly less literally, "having tired".

[DW9988]

I learned the word "blino" while watching the TV show "Bang" (looked it up on Google Translate because I didn't know about Duolingo). Why did the character say "blino" -- just the one word, no "dw i" -- instead of "wedi blino"? Thanks.

[Acebushmaster42]

i know it as sleepy

[oliverwren]

i put tired like it said and it is not wright

[Ahmad30981]

those word s are separate so i thought they were i am tired the i got it wrong

[Jrbrobsrv]

What is the literal translation of wedi blino?

[mizinamo]

See the question by deVignolles, further up.

[Jrbrobsrv]

I hadn't seen this. Thanks, Mizinamo.

I've gone way past this particular lesson, but I'm still confused about how to say mother or father
If anyone could please tell me so I can say good night to my parents that would be great.
