뜻
Being very busy.
문화적 배경
In Azerbaijan, 'İş çoxdur' is often used as a polite 'social shield.' It allows someone to decline an invitation without implying they don't like the person. In the business world of Baku, saying 'iş çoxdur' can be a sign of status, implying that the person or company is in high demand. During Novruz, 'iş çoxdur' refers to the intense cleaning and cooking (making pastries like shekerbura and pakhlava) that happens in every household. In villages, this phrase is seasonal. During the harvest (məhsul yığımı), 'iş çoxdur' is a literal description of the dawn-to-dusk labor in the fields.
The 'Polite No'
If you want to say 'no' to an invitation without being rude, always start with 'Bağışla' and end with 'iş çoxdur'.
Vowel Harmony
Don't forget the '-dur' suffix changes. If you talk about 'dərs' (lesson), it becomes 'Dərs çoxdur' (same suffix), but if you talk about 'yük' (load), it becomes 'Yük çoxdur'.

No, that's a common mistake. Say 'Mənim çox işim var' (I have much work).
The opposite is 'İş azdır' (Work is little) or 'İş yoxdur' (There is no work).
Use the past tense: 'İş çox idi'.
It can be. It's better to say 'İş çoxdur, amma sizin üçün həmişə vaxt var' (Work is much, but there is always time for you).
