When to use tan

This is just something I've noticed living with native speakers. Do people not use "tan" in Spanish in the same way we use "so" in English? For example, I would say "it's so hot outside" or "I'm so tired right now" but I always (I started listening for it so I'm serious about the always part) hear people use muy/very instead.

I guess it is titled poorly. My point is despite the fact that tan is translated as "so", it doesn't seem to be used as it is in English - bafalck, Sep 1, 2011
