8. Nov. 2010 · The most common variant is "focused" and "focusing", both in BrE and AmE (The Longman Grammar of Spoken and Written English). The rules are more standardized in AmE (canceled, sometimes even programed etc.) A note on "programed": I don't use this form. It is non-existent in BrE. It's listed in all major American dictionaries as acceptable.
27. Apr. 2013 · Apr 27, 2013. #2. Those two sentences mean the same thing. The second sentence has a better writing style, because the first sentence unnecessarily uses the passive voice (frowned upon in good writing) and uses more words than necessary (also frowned upon.) The second sentence does a better job of plainly saying what it means.
1. While some applications have non-focused lasers (laser pointers, laser light shows), many other lasers are focused (laser weapons, surgical lasers, manufacturing lasers, CD player lasers). It depends on how the laser is constructed, and its purpose. Many would take exception to the pedantic assertion that "lasers are not focused."
13. Okt. 2004 · Noun: focus and focuses and focussing Verb: focus, focuses or focusses, focusing or focussing, focused or focussed. I've used both forms, but when I'm more conscious with spelling then I use the ones with the extra s. Don't exactly know why when both forms are correct.

17. Feb. 2013 · I don't like using the word incorrect unless there is a clear grammatical tendency. There is evidence that it is used, but much less commonly than focuses. It also depends on what comes before it. For example, He is focused on (he devotes most of his energy to) is not quite the same as He focuses on (he concentrates on).

"I am focused on my work " says something about you personally - it is like, I am tall, I am young, etc. "I am focusing on my work" says something about what you are doing - it is like, I am fishing, I am walking,etc. Both of your sentences are OK.
30. Jan. 2012 · I'm looking for a better adjective that means focused in the sense of "intense concentration" like an elite warrior in battle. I guess it doesn't even need the sense of having blinders on, more about being "in the zone". The problem with focused or concentrated (even worse) is that it can apply to too many other things. The word should apply to ...

23. Juni 2018 · British English. Jun 23, 2018. #4. Good English does not rely on avoiding repetition, it relies on clarity and conciseness of expression.
