How do you say, "It sucks to be you" in Arabic? I need to learn this phrase for my acting class. English to Arabic. Thanks for the help! =)

As Muns says it is difficult to find an equivalent expression to 'sucks' in Arabic. Bear in mind that 'it sucks' is even slang not formal English. So it could be expressed in various ways (an expression of disdain and it wont be a literal translation in all cases.) Since it is a play, mentioning a whole paragraph will help to choose the most appropriate expression to use in that context. Some possible expressions: أنت لا تطاق أنت مقرف أنت شخص غير محتمل إلخ
