Quick use

Use きょうはいそがしいですか (kyou wa isogashii desu ka) with friends or new people when you ask about the current situation. It works well when you want a short answer instead of a long explanation.

Chunk or pattern

  • Reusable pattern: 〜 は / いそがしい ですか
  • Replace the part with the thing, place, document, item, or action you need in that scene.

Keep the line natural and light. In friendly conversation, simple often sounds better than over-explaining.
