Having a lot to do and no free time

When to use it

This is the everyday adjective for a person who has a lot to do, and also for a place or a time with a lot of people and activity. It is the normal, polite way to say you cannot do something: with a short apology first, you do not need to give any other reason. It goes after the verb for being, and in front of a noun. When you say what you are busy doing, use the -ing form of the verb after it, or use the word for with and a noun.
