~ているところ (in the middle of doing)

grammar

13 sentences

The construction ~ているところ (commonly ~ているところだ / ~ているところです at clause-end), pinpointing a moment in progress — 'is right in the middle of doing X.' Sharper than plain ~ている, which can describe ongoing OR resulting states; ところ explicitly singles out the in-progress moment. Distinct from ~ところだ (about to do X) and ~たところだ (just did X).
