exhausto
/eɡˈsausto/ · B2 · adj
exhausted
😴 exhausto = sounds like 'ex-haust-o': ex- (out) + haust (drained) = drained out
Spanish exhausto comes from Latin exhaustus, 'drawn out, drained' (ex- out + haurire to draw). A person who is exhausted has had all their energy drawn out, like a well with nothing left. Sounds like English exhaust.
