It means to work more hours than you have to. Overtime is a compound word.
sorry I do not speak Japanese

no they are two separate words. overtime is a noun. usually if an employer has a standard number of hours per day or per week that people work, but certain workers exceed that from time to time, they will put those hours down on their time sheet and hopefully get paid for the extra hours they worked as overtime.

@brettkelf i was saying that "overtime" is a compound word but "work overtime" is 2 words. thank you for the correction

work 》intransitive verb, overtime 》compound word noun. ok? thank you
- English (US)
yes work in this case is a verb. I'm not too sure about this business of it being intransitive... most people would talk about working the crowd or working the system, but maybe those are obscure cases
