aburrido
/abuˈrido/ · A2 · adj
boring, dull, tedious
🥱 a-BURR-ido: a burro ride, slow and dull, leaves you bored
The middle of aburrido sounds like burro, the plodding donkey. Etymology backs the feeling: it comes from Latin abhorrere, to shrink away from. With estar it means bored; with ser it means boring.
