核心句型:
I hope I'm not putting you out.
希望没有给你添麻烦。
put out意思很多,在口语中可以表示:“使不方便,打扰,给某人添麻烦”。因此,当美国人说"I hope I'm not putting you out."时,他/她要表达的意思就是:"I hope I'm not bringing you any inconvenience."、"I hope I'm not causing discomfort 1 to you."、"I hope I'm not bothering you."。

Terry: Don't worry. I will try my best to help you with such a tough task.
