Is 'lack of time' an idiom?

[Estela]

what LACK OF TIME mean?, It's an idiom?

[Torsten]

Lack of time means that you don't have enough time. By the way, your question should read 'what does lack of time mean, is it an idiom?' I would not classify it as an idiom or set phrase.

Hi Estela,

What does 'lack of time' mean?

'Lack of' suggests that something is missing or there is not enough of.

'Lack of time' means there is no more time left to do something.

You can say: As we didn't have enough time, we couldn't finish the job and that means: We didn't finish the job through lack of time.

Yes, it's so interesting. I would use "...due to lack of time". Never used "through" in such a situation before. Thanks Alan!
