as in: Are you busy? and I would reply "Not at all" the translator gave me nada en absoluto, nada, no en todos, but they don't sound quite right.
Gracias por su ayuda!

I don't think there is a direct translation for "not at all", however, in spanish you can answer in many different ways, depending how formal or casual you want to sound. From the above I would pick "Nada en lo Absoluto", forget about the other ones. Here are some other choices: 1. Por supuesto que no. 2. Claro que no. 3. Para nada. (a little more informal)

Answering "nada en lo absoluto", means you are definitely doing nothing, almost idle. Hope it helps.

Ni hablar. / Ni mucho menos. / Claro que no. / De ningún modo. / Ni en (tus/mis sueños) / etc.
