没完没了

• 병음: méi wán méi liǎo
• 한자 분석: 没 — lacking; 完 = 宀 (roof) + 元 — complete, finished; 了 — completion particle; reduplication creates emphasis

뜻

끝도 없이 계속되다; 끝이 없다

A strongly expressive colloquial phrase used to describe something — a person's complaints, a meeting, a conflict, noise — that never seems to come to an end. Carries a tone of frustration or exhaustion. Very common in spoken Mandarin.
