    become

    One of the first verbs I learned when I started learning russian was the verb stat' = become.
    At the beginning I thought that this verb was used both as sovershennyi and nesovershennyi vid glagol.
    Then I discovered the form stanovit'sya.
    So if I want to ask: Am I becoming boring?
    The translation is: Ya stanovlius' skuchnym / utomitel'nym?
    Чем больше слов, тем меньше они стоят.

    "Стать" - это совершенная форма глагола "становиться".

    "Он что сделал?" - "Он стал"
    "Он что делает?" - "Он становится"

    Translation is correct.

    Я становлюсь скучным = I'm becoming boring
    Я становлюсь утомительным implies that your opponent or a person you're talking with is getting tired. Just a slight nuance.
    Я становлюсь нудным/занудным (boring like a nerd).
    Мне становится скучно = I'm getting bored
