Dear teachers,
Does "busy body" have other meanings than "someone who meddles in other's business"? which meaning is the most popular?
Thanks in advance. |

Busybody (it's written as one word) means a meddling or prying person. |

Thanks for your response. So it doesn't have any other meanings?
oh, I'm thinking maybe I got it wrong. Busybody has one meaning, as you said. And the "other meaning" I'd thought of probably was about "busy body". |
