日不暇给 (rì bù xiá jǐ)
日 (rì): refers to the day.
不 (bù): a negative adverb.
暇 (xiá): means free.
给 (jǐ): means is enough.
We use this Chinese idiom to express that there are too many things to do, but there isn’t enough time.

Literally, it translates to “我已经好久没见到你了。(Wǒ yǐjīng hǎo jiǔ méi jiàn dào nǐ le.)” You can also use this shorter version “好久不见。(Hǎo jiǔ bú jiàn.) Long time no see.”
Here is a video lesson about “好久不见。(Hǎo jiǔ bú jiàn.)” you might find useful.
