Full plate.
「Full plate」喺英文入面係指一個人有好多事要處理,忙到唔夠時間休息。如果話一個人「Full plate」,意思就係佢手頭上嘅工作或者責任重到好似一個飯盤堆滿咗嘢食咁,一眼望去已經滿到冇位再加。喺香港,我哋可以將呢個短語翻譯做「好忙」或者「手頭緊」。像喺職場上,經常會聽到同事話:「唔好意思,我而家好忙,幫唔到你。」呢句話就反映咗「Fullw plate」嘅實際用法。
She has a full plate.

With three kids and a demanding job, she really has a full plate.
有三個小朋友同一份繁忙嘅工作,佢真係非常忙。
Balancing work and school gives him a full plate.
