To be SWAMPED <<<<<
When someone is very busy at work, you can describe them as "swamped".
A: Hey, do you want to go out for lunch?
B: I can't today. I'm SWAMPED.
The word "swamp" means a big pool of mud . So when you're "swamped" with work, it's like being stuck in a pool of mud that you can't get out of.
If someone is busy but not extremely busy, just use the word "BUSY" instead.
DOWNPLAY (verb)
>>>> To make something seem less important or less bad than it really is.
- Downplayed the bad news.
- The press has downplayed the president's role in the negotiations.
- When something has only gotten slightly good results, or you want to downplay results that were actually very good, you say it "did OK".
