Ça dépendrait pas mal du contexte je dirais

[wary zenith]

I mean in a sense of self-actualisation when one achieved a dream or when a task is finished

[rose storm]

Du coup, j'imagine que tu pourrais utiliser le verbe s'épanouir ou sinon dire quelque chose du genre "je suis satisfait de ma vie" ...

... satisfait dans la vie

[west vessel]

La*

Ouais je suis épanoui ; je suis comblé; je suis satisfait de ma situation

Y’a peut être une meilleure traduction mais comme ça rien ne vient

[rose storm]

lol, c'est juste une coquille, mais merci

[west vessel]

J’imaginais bien mais c’était pour être sûr

[wary zenith]

Exemples:

• After years of personal development and achieving her life-long dream of starting her own charity, she exclaimed, "I'm complete," feeling a deep sense of satisfaction and accomplishment.

• Upon finishing the final chapter of his novel, the author leaned back in his chair and sighed, "I'm complete," indicating that his work was finally done and ready for publication.

Ici, "s'épanouir" serait donc le plus approprié ?

[west vessel]

Moi j’aurais une préférence pour « je suis comblé »

Mais après c’est purement subjectif

[torpid apex]

it is a weird use of the adjective 'complete'. Correct English would say 'it is complete.'

which would translate to > c'est fini, c'est terminé.

[rose storm]

“I am complete”, while rare, is absolutely okay in English

[torpid apex]

if it refers to the feeling of satisfaction for completing the work then Azokx is right

Ouais je suis épanoui ; je suis comblé; je suis satisfait de ma situation
Y’a peut être une meilleure traduction mais comme ça rien ne vient

[torpid apex]

I never have heard it before and I have live a few aprils to be able to tell. when used like that it usually expresses a feeling of self-satisfaction

[rose storm]

Huh?

[torpid apex]

it is not common my man

it is not

[rose storm]

I didn’t say it was. I literally said it’s rare.

[torpid apex]

I am complete I am finished is what it is used in that case

[rose storm]

No, “I am complete” doesn’t mean I’m finished

[torpid apex]

well, I am replying to your huh

I said it could be said but it is not standard english

[rose storm]

It’s standard English

[torpid apex]

well, not used

'maybe literal

I am done, I am finished, it is finished, it is done

those are the common ones

[rose storm]

No, it is not used for “I am finished”

It means that you’re fulfilled

[torpid apex]

that is what I said

unless you are implying that you are self-stisfied

we agree then

I though he wanted to use it as ' i'm done '

I worte this a few messages above >
