Does the phrase "don't get sidetracked when I'm talking to you" make sense?
I hope the meaning is clear and you might paraphrase the sentence I have wrote somehow if it doesn't sound natural in English or something.
I've just found the word "sidetrack" in a book and want to get a better understanding of its meaning. In the book the word is separate, so I don't have a single example of its use. I think I can use it like that, can't I?
Here's another example I can think of, please tell me whether this one is also correct, "he isn't a good listener, as he gets easily sidetracked from me to something else".
Thanks for your attention! =)
