It is equivalent to saying who wants to participate in x with me? it is not used very often, at least in my experience However, people will understand what it means if you say it in conversation For example, if you wanted to get food I'm feeling hungry, so i'm going to order pizza
I am from india and not a native english speaker I do often hear people introducing themselves like hello everyone This is james is it an acceptable form in native english When you are invited to the party from your boss and would like to join, is it appropriate to say i'm in

I'd like to know more formal ways of say. I am on it in your first example sounds like a shortened version of i’m on the case, a colloquial way of saying that the speaker is dealing with it In the context of some kind of dispute, as in your second example, they’re at it again means that they have started doing again whatever it was that was a component in the dispute. I'm rooting for you, in this context, root would be defined as follows
Root /rut or, sometimes, rʊt/ [objectless verb] (1) to encourage a team or contestant by cheering or applauding enthusiastically (2) to lend moral support Perhaps variant of rout /raʊt, rut/ [verb] to bellow, roar [noun] a bellow Middle english rowten < old norse rauta. I've heard people saying i'm not too sure on the internet
I guess it means the same as i'm not very sure
