Proverb Ep.004 : I'm sorry, but I have the same problem

조인어스코리아 2021. 8. 13. 18:36

Hello everyone!

Today we're going to tell you about a Korean proverb.😁

The phrase is: "내 코가 석자다"

This phrase is used to describe a situation when you have too much on your plate that you can't afford to help someone😥 For example, if your friend asks for your help on a math quiz, but you don't know the answer to the questions yourself then you can't say "미안한데 내 코가 석자야 (Sorry, but I can't help you out because I'm also in the same situation)"

Do you guys have a similar saying in your country? Please tell us in the comment section below ❤️
