  7. <h1>Expressing "among" with "dangzhong"</h1>
  8. <p>当中(dāngzhōng) means "among," or more literally "in the middle of." In English this is a bit like "of," where you would say, "of all of my friends, you are the most loyal." Also, 当中 can be used to express being in the middle of an activity or process that is fairly formal in nature e.g being in the middle of negotiating rather than being in the middle of talking on the phone.
