Usage Note
Aburrimiento is the noun form of aburrir (to bore) / aburrirse (to get bored). It pairs with tener in colloquial speech — tengo un aburrimiento mortal — but more formally with ser or existential constructions. Note that aburrir is like gustar: the thing boring you is the subject — me aburre la espera (the wait bores me), not yo aburro.
Examples
"El aburrimiento me hizo salir a pasear."
Natural Translation
Boredom made me go out for a walk.
