Meaning

“I’m in the middle of” 是一个常用的英语表达，用来表示某人正在进行某事，通常意味着这个事情还没有完成。这个短语的字面意思是“我正在……的中间”，但实际上它可以用在各种情境下，表示正在做某件事情。 例如，当别人打电话给你，而你正在做一件其他事情时，你可以说：“I’m in the middle of something right now, can I call you back later?” 这句话的意思是“我现在正在忙，能稍后给你回电话吗？”。这里的“something”可以替换成具体正在做的事情，比如“a meeting”（开会）或“cooking”（做饭）。 使用“I’m in the middle of”时，后面通常接一个动名词（-ing形式）或名词，来具体说明正在进行的事情。这个表达强调了事情的进行状态，而不是事情的开始或结束。 总结来说，“I’m in the middle of” 是一个很实用的短语，帮助你在不打断当前活动的情况下礼貌地与他人沟通。

Writer’s Note

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been interrupted while I was in the middle of doing something. It could have been at work while I was super focused or it could have been when I was at home making dinner and both kids were telling me something at the same time. It could have been while I was listening to music or doing dishes and for some reason, the phone rings at the same time the kids are fighting and your partner is asking you a question. Ah.. life. Gets so crazy sometimes but now you know the perfect phrase to tell your coworkers or family that you’re busy. In a nice way.

我无法告诉你有多少次我在做事情时被打断。可能是在工作时我非常专注，或者是在家做晚饭时，两个孩子同时跟我说话。可能是在我听音乐或洗碗时，总是碰巧电话响起，孩子们在争吵，而你的伴侣在问你问题。啊……生活。有时真的会变得非常疯狂，但现在你知道了一个完美的短语，可以用来礼貌地告诉同事或家人你很忙。

Sometimes English sentences seem extra long but treat longer sentences as chunks for example, "I’m in the middle of" is one chunk and the rest of the sentence is another.

有时，英语句子看起来特别长，但可以将较长的句子分成块来处理，例如，“I’m in the middle of” 是一个块，句子的其余部分是另一个块。
