what's the meaning of うちに, and how to use it?
I have seen this word everywhere in sentences like
"勉強しているうちに日本語が上手になりました"
”二、三日のうちに行きます。”
”どうぞ熱いうちに食べてください。”
”船は見ているうちに小さくなっていきました。”
However I couldn't find a proper explanation for this word, it seems like it's something related to the timing I guess. Could anyone help me with it? ありがとうございます！
