Is it possible to attach になる to a verb


Is it possible to attach になる to a verb. For example:

I got tired after table tennis ー 卓球やってから **疲れ（て）** ‍になった

I am not sure how to link 疲れる to になる. Is this not possible in Japanese?




> _Is it possible to attach になる to a verb._

No. なる only works with nouns and adjectives.

> 社員になる _become an employee_  
>  元気になる _become fine_  
>  重くなる _become heavy/ier_

なる appears in a verb form only as keigo.

> お書きになる < 書く

An expression that involves a verb and なる does exist, which is ～ようになる. But it
stands for that an event starts to constantly happen, and not what you try to
tell.

> 卓球やってから疲れるようになった  
>  _I started easily getting tired after playing table tennis._

Fortunately, however, most Japanese verbs denote change of state with the
unmarked aspect.

> 疲れる _get tired_ , _be exhausting_  
>  疲れ **ている** _be tired_

Thus,

> 卓球やって疲れた _I got tired after table tennis_

* * *

**Bonus:**

Rewording 疲れる using synonyms that go along with なる is of course possible.

> 卓球やってへとへとになった  
>  卓球をして疲労困憊になった  
>  _I was exhausted after table tennis._
