How to Say ‘I’m Bored, I Need Something to Do’ in Japanese

Written by Krisada Hemsoe in How to prepare JLPT

To express boredom and the need for something to do in Japanese, you can use the following phrase:

  • 「暇で、何かしたいです。」 (Himade, nanika shitai desu.)

Here’s a breakdown of the phrase:

  • 暇で (Himade) means “because I’m bored” or “due to having free time.”
  • 何かしたいです (Nanika shitai desu) means “I want to do something.”

This phrase allows you to effectively convey your boredom and the desire to engage in some activity or find something to do.
