👉 Beadle is an idiomatic expression in the English language used to describe someone who has been busy with work and can't find time for leisure activities like sports, hobbies, or spending time with friends. It comes from the 19th-century slang of Irish "beaide" meaning 'to be' or 'being'.
An example sentence using 'beadle': "I don’t need to be a 'beadle' all day long! I’ve got a job and a car, so why waste my time on this useless 'beadle'? How about we head out for a walk in the park? It’s refreshing to get away from the monotony of work!"
Beadle can also be used as an expression of anger or frustration, like this: "She's been working too hard lately, and I can't handle it anymore! I've got a job to do and sports to play. I'm tired of 'beadling' all day long!"
