🎙️5️⃣9️⃣To oversleep (睡过头 shuì guò tóu)
I turned off my alarm this morning to rest for just five more minutes… and woke up after nine! Luckily, I had no important meetings today. Let’s learn how to say “to oversleep” in Chinese.
睡过头 （shuì guò tóu)
今天早上我的闹钟响了。Jīntiān zǎoshang wǒ de nàozhōng xiǎng le.This morning, my alarm went off.
我关掉闹钟。Wǒ guān diào nàozhōng.I turned off the alarm.
想再休息五分钟。Xiǎng zài xiūxi wǔ fēnzhōng.I wanted to rest for five more minutes.
结果一觉醒来，Jiéguǒ yí jiào xǐng lái,But when I woke up again,
已经九点多了！Yǐjīng jiǔ diǎn duō le!It was already after nine!
我睡过头了。Wǒ shuì guò tóu le.I overslept.
还好今天没有重要的会议。Hái hǎo jīntiān méiyǒu zhòngyào de huìyì.Luckily, I didn’t have any important meetings today.
