How do you say 'to die from...' in Japanese?


For instance, I'm trying to say 'I would die from boredom' and the best I can
come up with is

> 死ぬのから退屈だ

However, I strongly suspect this isn't correct. It would also be useful to
have the phrase "I suffer from..." laid out as well.




This is Japanese. We can't be confident in a translation without knowledge
like who you're talking to, your relative status, written or spoken, what
setting, etc. etc.

退屈で死ぬ would mean "to die from boredom". で is often used to mark the means or
cause of something (cf. 病気で死ぬ=die from an illness, 水不足で死ぬ=die from
dehydration, etc). Note that the particle marks what is before it. So you
could say like 退屈で死ぬかもしれない for 'I would die from boredom'. To a friend in
everyday conversation though, I would probably say something more like
退屈すぎて死ぬわ.
