@CK

Doesn't "dead" mean "very tired"?

> Doesn't "dead" mean "very tired"?

No. This sentence is asking the listener if he/she is dead. Maybe the situation is that you see someone on the ground, and you shake that person and say this sentence.

We do use the expressions "dead tired" to mean "very tired."

[#501385] I'm dead tired. (CK) *audio*
[#2509419] I feel dead tired. (sharptoothed) *audio*
[#5502551] Tom came home dead tired. (CK) *audio*
[#1410975] We were dead tired from the five-hour trip. (CK) *audio*
[#73065] I am dead tired from walking around all day. (CK)

I can see some examples of "dead" as "very tired".

You usually don't use that usage, do you?
Perhaps is "dead tired" more common than that?
