Concurrido

Question

Looking for a word to talk about a busy enviroment. Usually I would use full of people or full of movment, but this sentence already has full of people and busy in it. The diccionario gave me this word:

concurrido

but I have never used it, so I'm not quite sure if its appropriate

so thought on this:

when they arrived, the town was busy and full of people

Cuando llegaron a la colonia, estaba concurrido y llena de gente.

Not an adjective, but "un remolino" can be applied to a crowd of people running around. - Jeremias, Jul 29, 2011

Answer 1

I believe you can! I don't think you would need "llena" since "concurrido" means "crowded" or "full".

This might help you out a bit more.

You're right. With the two words, it's redundant - 005faa61, Jul 29, 2011

Answer 2

No estoy deacuerdo, no es redundante.

"Concurrido" es un lugar donde acude mucha gente (popular en cierto sentido), pero no implica que el lugar esté lleno en ese minuto, pero eventualmente se llenará, por eso están relacionadas las palabras "lleno y concurrido".

I desagree, It´s not redundant.

"Concurrido" is a place where many people go (popular in a sense), however, this not implies that the place is full in this minute, but eventually the place be filled, bacause of that exist a relationship between words "lleno y concurrido".
