Explanation
Engaged means being busy, involved, or focused on something. For example, a person can be engaged in work, talking, or doing a task. In relationships, “engaged” means two people have promised to marry. Phones or lines are also “engaged” when someone is using them. As a verb (past tense of “engage”), it shows that someone took part in or was involved in something; for example, “He engaged in helping others.” The word shows that someone is paying attention to, busy with, or focused on an activity, a conversation, or a relationship. Being engaged means you are not free for other things because you are active or focused on something important.
