Hi @lesyaziborova ! Just to add to what @lydiadragonfruit answered with some example sentences.
I am done = To finish a task/doing something. Examples below:
Mum: 'Have you finished eating?'
Child: 'Yep, I'm done.'
Student A: 'When did you finish the test?'
Student B: 'I was done within the first 20 minutes.'
On the phone: 'I'm all done with the housework. I'm heading out to the shop now.'
I am done = To be tired of a situation/person and therefore finished with it. When you can't be bothered with something, you are done with it.
Friend A) 'This museum tour is a little boring. Shall we go?'
Friend B) 'Yep, I'm done too. Let's go.'
"I am so done with housework! I never want to do it again!"
'I am done with partying. I want to have quiet and restful evenings.'
Friend A) 'Honestly, Chris is being SO annoying.'
Friend B) 'I know. I am done with our friendship. I'd rather not be friends.'
I hope the above sentences examples are helpful! 😊
