The origin of the phrase "have enough of someone or something" can be traced back to the idiomatic use of the word "enough" to indicate reaching a limit or saturation point. The phrase itself likely emerged from the natural expression of feeling overwhelmed or fed up with someone or something after enduring it for an extended period. This expression is used when someone has reached their limit or tolerance level regarding a specific person's behavior, a recurring situation, or an ongoing issue. It can be applied to relationships, work environments, social interactions, or any aspect of life where there is a feeling of being overwhelmed, annoyed, or dissatisfied.
