How do you say "mostly"? For example: I "mostly" work these days

Halley said right. if I add some about it, it will be like following. mostly could have meaning like mainly, largely, chiefly, principally, primarilly, on the whole, so we can say '주로, 대부분, 대게, 거의. so when we say 'I am mostly working these days, (whenever people try to call me)' can be (사람들이 나한테 전화할 때마다) 나 요즘 대부분 일하고 있어/나 요즘 대개는 일하고 있어/나 요즘 거의 일하고 있어. those are similar expressions. how about other situations? let's read thru. :) It's mostly Mihyeon's fault that we miss the bus. 우리가 버스를 놓친 것은 '거의' 미현이 탓이다. It's mostly the celebrities who lead the fashion. 유행을 이끄는 것은 '대체로(대개)' 연예인들(유명인사)들이다. Mostly, there is a speedometer on the bicycle. '대부분' 자전거에는 속도계가 있다. The election pits President Deby against four challengers who are mostly government allies. 데비 대통령은 '주로' 친정부 인사들인 네 명의 다른 후보들과 경쟁하고 있다. Since I work for a company, I mostly do applied science. 취직한 이래로 난 '주로' 응용과학 분야 일을 한다. hope it could be helpful. :) have a great day 유메짱.
