Hey everyone! I have been a little quiet lately, it has been a busy few days and I have been snowed under with all that has been going on 😅
Today's tip is in the form of an idiom. We like to use idioms in English to convey a message in an expressive way or in a way that paints a mental picture for the listener. Remember the words used in an idiom have a figurative meaning which is different from their literal meaning.
The idiom 'snowed under' makes us think of being buried in snow, perhaps after an avalanche 🌨 ❄️🌨
But when we use this idiom, we are conveying the idea of being very busy or overwhelmed with some tasks or events ⏳🧑💻👨🏫
