To "jump in" means to suddenly become involved in an activity or situation, or to interrupt someone. You can use it when you enter a situation suddenly and with a lot of energy or you interrupt a conversation. Ex: May I jump into this conversation? Ex: Jim and I broke up. We jumped in too fast and got hurt.
