"عِنْدي عَمَل."

Translation: I have work.

[safa.orhan]

Does it mean l'm employed or is it like I have work to do?

[AmineHadji1]

This sentence out of the blue would mean "I have a job"

[Mariam704664]

This usually means i have work to do

[CKj79lUj]

why not : I have a work (not accepted)?

[phuvtuo]

Because work is not a countable noun in English. You can't have "a work" or "two works". You just have work. (Unless you are talking about works of art, which this is not about.)

[CKj79lUj]

thanks a lot for your answer!

[Meow.Man.Aiman]

You're welcome

[BafouillCharabia]

And can we say "I have a job ?"
Thanks for your answer.

[AmineHadji1]

Yes, we can

[BafouillCharabia]

But we can say "my work", "his work", etc.
and not "a work"...
Sometimes English language is really weird (as every language hi hi hi ! Humans are definitely not robots)
