  • I am native english speaking girl. I want to make my life easier! Intuitively, I think of “Middle” as “between things” and “Center” as in “in the position exactly 50 % in one direction”

    • When someone asks that number between the two arrows on the left of the answers in this question it’s the number in the “Middle”. It’s also in the “Center”. In this case I believe ‘center’ is a more specific term which is best to use here.

    • The list of tags on this question is in the “Middle” of this questions content, as it is between text and the share etc buttons, but it is not necessarily in the exact “Center” of the content.

    • Middle (or center) can mean general area. Center (or innermost, central, rocky) is more precise. The letters L, M, N, and O are all in the middle of the alphabet, but the “Center” of the alphabet does not really exist, since it would be in-between the letters M and N.

    • The same is true for numbers, the “Middle” and “Center” are 2, and the “Center” referring to all three. Compare these two figures with the case of the case of the case. But the “Middle” of the numbers “0, 1”: is 0. How do you add your 0, 1 into 5, and the “center” is a wrong answer?

    It is true that “Middle” can be used in certain contexts that “Center” cannot be used in. If we have one older sibling and one younger sibling, one is the middle child but the other is not the center child. Are we the middle child?

    “center” is not a subset of “middle”, they are different words. What are some examples of “Center” being used in contexts that “Middle” cannot be. As someone pointed out, the name of a building may be “The Center for X” but it can’t be “The Middle for X”. In

    your context, I would have to ask, are the objects on the list equally sized, and are there always an odd number of them? If so, “center” might be better, otherwise I would use “Middle”

    (part of MC) sentence.
