Idiom of the Day
🔰at a loose end
🇬🇧British English
☑️Meaning: If you're at a loose end, you have nothing to do.
📍For example:
🔺If I'm ever at a loose end, I look for a good book to read.
🔺Give me a call if you're at a loose end and we'll go and do something.
💥Note: This is similar to the American idiom "at loose ends", though the American idiom seems to indicate a state of unhappy restlessness that results from having nothing to do, while the British idiom simply means having nothing to do.
✨Variety: This idiom is typically used in British English but may be used in other varieties of English too.
