I can't understanding the meaning of the phrase in bold. Please explain it to me.


This is my experience today even though my current situation has me being wrought.
 
Re: Meaning of phrase

Where did you find this text? The writer has misused "wrought" and probably isn't a native speaker.
 
For the third time, we need the source and author of any quoted text.:bad-word:

And for the second time, I have changed your thread title.

Extract from the Posting Guidelines:

'Thread titles should include all or part of the word/phrase being discussed.'

I got this quote from a Facebook comment.I don't have any screenshot of it. :cry:
 
The sentence is in fractured English. I can only guess that the writer meant s/he was very upset about the experience, whatever it was. If so, the word they were looking for was overwrought.

The sentence is very poor even if you correct that word.
 
Thanks but I am confused about this structure "has me being ".Could you please explain a bit about this type of sentence structure?

I can't think of a grammatical sentence that would contain that sequence of words.

It's really not a good idea to do that. I agree with GoesStation that it is likely that the writer is not a native speaker, and is probably not a proficient user of English.
 
"being" has no place there and, as has been stated, "overwrought" seems to be the word that should have been used.

This situation has me overwrought.

To use "being", it would have to be "This situation has resulted in me/my being overwrought."
