记住:“我很忙”,别只会用'I'm very busy'
英语口语
吉米老师前言:工作忙,学习忙……其实无论是学生党还是上班族,忙碌都是我们日常生活中不可避免的一种状态。在英语中,想要和他人表示自己忙碌的状态时,除了'I'm busy.'(我很忙)还有不少表达方式,一起和老师学起来吧~
口语交际
1

Right now,my hands are full!
我现在手头事情满额了!
当你大包小包的“血拼”完,连开门的手都腾不出来,这时候你的状态就是'have (got) your hands full'。
由此这个词可以引申表示为 “忙得腾不出手”,为处理各种各样的事情,两只手都没闲着,可想而知有多少事情要忙。
She certainly has her hands full with four kids in the house.
家里养着四个孩子,她当然忙得团团转.

E.g.:I can't help you next week, I've got too much on my plate.

My hands are tied.
我抽不开空。
