Pénible

[caligo]

Bonsoir,

Comment 'traduire' au mieux cette phrase?

Ces deux dernières semaines ont été éprouvantes (et pénibles) pour moi.
These last two weeks were difficult for me (or to me)?

Thanks

trying would be pénibles, too, in some contexts.

Sorry, but I did not get it, why 'trying' would be 'pénible'?
I would like to say that it was 'exhausting', 'tiring' but I don't want to use these words, in this context.

These last two weeks have been difficult/trying (and painful) for me.
