Im pretty confuse with the pronouns part since i just start learning turkish. How should i ask " are you busy with your work or are you busy" in turkish? "Meşgul" itself means tired. Im confuse what should added following by the works. How can i get these order clear?

well, the meaning of "meşgul" is not "tired". Meşgul means "to be busy with something". so basicly "are you busy?" should be translated as "meşgul musun?"

BTW, tired=yorgun.

meşgul's one of the closest mean is "yoğun"

You can say "İşler yoğun mu?" for "Are you busy with your work?"

Thanks for this pretty question.

I think I made it difficult a bit

Are u busy with your work?
You can say "Ýþinde meþgul müsün?"

please be relax. i think you can improve your Turkish.

doğru. In example:
Are you a doing your homework? "Ödevini yapıyor musun?"
But sometimes "musun?" changes because of the last vowels of the word.

Lets look at "musunuz/misiniz" thread
