خلفية ثقافية
Danes value their free time highly. Saying 'jeg har travlt' is a respected way to protect your work-life balance. In Danish offices, being 'travl' is seen as a sign of being a team player, but 'stress' is a warning sign that needs management. It is common to apologize for being busy if you haven't replied to a text within 24 hours. Younger Danes often use 'sygt travlt' (sick busy) to emphasize their workload in an informal way.
The 'Med' Rule
Always use 'med' if you want to specify the task. 'Jeg har travlt med [ting]'.
Don't say 'Jeg er travl'
This is the #1 mistake. Even if it sounds right in your head, it's wrong in Danish!
