Are you run off your feet today?

Sara.TEFL

2026 年 9 月 9 日

Dear Students,

Are you busy today?  Here's a great English idiom to describe your situation!

'To be run off your feet' means to be very busy; as if you're moving so fast, you've lost control of your feet!  We can also say 'rushed off', instead.

You can use it to describe your day at work, for example, or when you're busy preparing for an event.


Examples:

I'm so sorry.  I didn't have time to finish that.  I was run off my feet this afternoon.

A: Was the restaurant busy?
B: Oh, very.  The waiters were run off their feet!

You need to rest.  I know you've been rushed off your feet this week.



If you're busy, and you like learning idioms, you might be interested in my 'Quick Hit: Idioms' lesson.  You can learn 3-5 useful English idioms in just 15 minutes, with examples and practice. 

I'm offering a 20% discount on this lesson until the 19th of September - book now!
