U frci sam
I have to make it snappy
Ref. Boris Hlebec – Rečnik slenga
First post, and I have to make it snappy (I'm in a rush).
I came here because you guys are the experts, and I need an expert opinion.

My ritual is to go in with fly spray and fumigate the dunny, then go in.Mind you,it's hard to breathe when I go in so I have to make it snappy in there. LoL!!!

Currently working like mad on the proposal for my paper at Blogtalk 2004. Contrary to last year, when my proposal was a bit lame, I think I have a really entertaining, provocative topic this year, and I really want to present it. So I have to make it snappy to impress the steering committee. Argh.

I'm in a fuss.
Još jedan mogući način, pored svega što sam dolje pomenuo, te prijedloga ostalih kolega/koleginica.
Ipak, trebali ste nam dati malo širi kontekst. Ovako možemo samo nagađati i nuditi potencijalna rješenja.
Lijep pozdrav.

Discussion
I am in a race against time. - U frci sam. (nemam vremena, imam zadati rok koji moram da ispoštujem, pa sam 'u frci da stignem')
I'm a bit pressed for time. - U frci sam. (jednostavno nemam vremena da obavim određeni posao)
da li biste bili ljubazni da date nešto širi kontekst, obzirom da je ovo moguće interpretirati na nekoliko različitih načina u našem jeziku, te prevesti na engleski uz konotiranje višestrukih značenja.
Da li se misli "u frci sam" - nemam vremena, imam veliki problem ili "nešto sam gadno zabrljao" ili "užasno žurim" ili "u sred sam nemilih i neprijatnih događanja.."
Naravno, to određuje širi kontekst da bismo mogli birati izraz koji će prenijeti upravo tu poruku na engleskom jeziku.
Lijep pozdrav
