as it is
adverb
- In the actual circumstances (and often contrary to expectations). The roosters would look awesome, their beaks fearsome weapons. A frightening thought. As it is, each rooster needed to be tethered to his own hut to keep them from pecking each other's eyes out.
- Already; without adding further difficulty or complexity. Right now it is too dangerous to obsess about such things. It will only make life harder, and life is hard enough as it is.
- Used other than figuratively or idiomatically: see as, it, is.
