hot mess : (겉모습은 멀쩡하지만)실수가 잦은 사람
to be a hot mess : 실수가 잦은, 엉망인
absolutely disorganized and feel like you can't do anything right

ex. Oh my gosh, I am a hot mess today.

맙소사,  오늘 엉망진창이네.

Now, I feel like I'm a hot mess.

이제서야 내가 엉망인 기분이 들어.

Where have you been? You.. look like a hot mess.

어디에 있었던 거야? .. 몰골이 말도 아니야.

take a breather : 잠깐 휴식을 취하다, 숨을 돌리다
pause your activity for a short period of time and just relax

ex. I think I need to take a breather cuz I've been working since dawn.

새벽부터 일해서 쉬어야 같아.

Let's take a breather for a while.

잠깐 쉬었다 하죠.

How about taking a breather and going back to work?

잠깐 쉬었다가 다시 일하는 어때요?

 

feel off : 몸이 좋지 않은
confused, not clearly minded,
a light sense of depression

ex. I feel off out of the blue.

갑자기 기분이 안좋아.

I don't have any energy today and don't even know why. I just feel off.

오늘 힘이 없고 이유조차 모르겠어. 그냥 몸이 좋아.

puzzled : 어리둥절해하는, 얼떨떨한
feeling confused
baffled

ex. She wore a puzzled look on her face.

그녀는 얼굴에 얼떨떨한 표정을 짓고 있었다.

He turned to me with a puzzled look.

그가 의아한 표정으로 나를 돌아보았어.

The complexity of the road map puzzled me.

도로 지도가 복잡해서 헷갈렸다.
