be at the end of one’s tether

جان کسی به لب آمدن

(To be completely exasperated.)

When he was at the end of his tether, he turned to his friends for help.

وقتی که طاقتش طاق شد، دست کمک به سوی دوستانش در از کرد.

مثال دیگر:

The truth is I was at the end of my tether and I had no hope for the future.

واقعیت این است که من طاقتم طاق شده بود و هیچ امیدی به آینده نداشتم.
