Chinese: 手術中 to Japanese?

[Elizabeth]

That's true, though I would find it a bit quirky since it's like an announcement pointing out that something is 'malfunctioning in progress' to which my response would be 'uh, OK, thanks... now have someone fix it already!' Of course, in the literary sense, it's fine in that there's no mistake.

It's quite normal for it to be used that way in Japanese.

Yes, I know. I didn't dispute that.

I mean it isn't only fine in the literary sense : it is fine functionally and
semantically and every other way the people use their language as well.

Haha, yeah, I'm aware as I've seen it when in Japan. Thanks for emphasizing that though.
