Well,that`s hard for me to explain to you these two words in detail.English can not explain Chinese vividly.I will try to
其中 means “A portion of the specified content” For example:
These two teachers are Chinese teachers among this teacher group.In Chinese:
在这个教师小组里,这两位老师是语文老师
中 means in the middle of sth. For example:
He stands in the middle of the classroom. In Chinese:
他站在教室中间
的 You can put 的 after 其中 or don`t put.that`s all ok. But we don`t put 的 after 中 in ordinary occasions. But in the ancient China,our ancestors use 中的 In Ping Yin: zhong4 di2
It has three means:1. The arrow hit the target 2.Achieve the goal 3.Speak to the point
其中的 For example: I bought five books,two of them are red.
我买了五本书,其中的两本是红色的 U can also say:
我买了五本书,其中有两本是红色的 我买了五本书,其中两本是红色的
That`s all ok.Chinese is very colorful,you know.You can say any of them,we can understand.
