Grammar a Day - Level 1 [ 唯でさえ (tadadesae) ]

唯でさえ (tadadesae) - To add to, something alone is normally enough


--- Examples ---
もうこの近所はただでさえうるさいところが、今週は近くで工事が始まったため、夜は一睡も出来なくなった。
This neighbourhood is already normally noisy enough but this week
construction started nearby so now I can hardly get a wink of sleep.

もうただでさえ迷惑をかけているのに〜
Haven't you caused enough trouble already?

これは
ただでさえおいしいものが、さらに我が隠し味を入れたら美味しくてたまらなくなるよ。
This is normally really delicious anyway but if you add our special
ingredient it will be irresistable.

今日はただでさえ忙しいのに、母に買い物に行かされた
To day, I'm already busy enough but ,my mother wanted me to go shopping
