In Italian, you can say 'Sembra impegnato' (male) or 'Sembra impegnata' (female) to express 'You look busy'. The difference is due to the gender of the person you're addressing."}, {"role": "user", "content": "That's really helpful, thank you. What if I want to say it to a group of people, or if I don't know the gender of the person?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "If you want to say it to a group of people or if you're unsure of the person's gender, you can use the formal 'Sembra impegnato' as a default, or simply say 'Sembra che siate impegnati' to address a group."}, {"role": "user", "content": "That's great to know. Can you give me another example of how to use this phrase?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "For example, if you enter a shop and the shopkeeper is dealing with another customer, you could say 'Sembra impegnato, torner\u00f2 pi\u00f9 tardi' which means 'You look busy, I'll come back later'. This shows that you respect their time and are willing to wait."}]
