Iâm not sure which form of BREAK DOWN youâre referring to so hereâs 2 ways you could use it:
Last night at work, a customer called me lazy and I had a major break down in the stall and cried for an hour.
Her mom died today and on her way home she broke down and let it all out.
School is giving her a major break down and she canât seem to keep up.
OR
Iâm going to break down this door if you donât answer me!
We need to break down false stereotypes!

@Marianberri HI, yes, like: My tv broke down because I dropped soda on it. Or break a relationship

@Jessgv113 Your tv would just break. Break down is used more for cars or larger machines.
"My car broke down, can you come pick me up?"
"You broke my tv! I told you be careful with your drink!"

Serå mås fåcil si te lo explico en español.
âMy car broke down yesterdayâ
Or
âMy TV broke downâ
Significan que la cosa se descompuso o que se quebrĂł.
âBreak downâ No se usa con las relaciones pero âbreak offâ se puede usar cuando hablas de una relaciĂłn. SerĂa lo mismo que decir âquebrĂ© mi conexiĂłn con fulano y ahora no nos hablamosâ
Does that make sense and answer your question?
