"I am finishing my coffee" in spanish Lets say you are kind of in a rush, and somebody asks you what you are doing, and you want to say "I am just finishing my coffee", how would you say it? I guess "Estoy acabando beber mi café" but I am sure this sounds very strange xD

I think I would never say "mi café" in a situation like this. I would say: "me estoy acabando el café" o "estoy terminándome el café"

Dear Emelie, There are many options, some of them more acceptable than others: 1. Estoy terminando mi café. (This is almost a word for word translation, but "just" is not included) 2. Me estoy terminando mi café. (Very similar to the previous one) 3. Estoy sólo terminando mi café. (Whole sentence is translated) 4. Sólo estoy terminando mi café. (This is other option and it sounds good, maybe more natural than the previous one) I hope it helps you.

Hola Emelie Esta frase no creo que lo uses mucho, el contexto seria este: Estas sentada en un cafetería y te encuentras con un amigo que te dice para ir algún otro lado pero tu estas tomando un café, tu le responderías en ese caso: *Disculpa, estoy por terminar mi café me esperas un momento.* No creo que en la practica uses esta oración, ya que se debería de usar en un contexto de que alguien te este apurando.
