How to use homework in a sentence.
Could you tell me whether all these expressions natural and common?
I (. ).
1. always struggle with a lot of homework.
2. am always buried in a lot of homework.
3. am always busy getting my homework done.
4. am always overwhelmed by a lot of homework.
Top answer
I would probably delete "a lot of" in (2) and (4). "buried" and "overwhelmed" already convey this idea. (1) is correct English but the meaning seems ambiguous to me.
