Questions & Answers about Vi flyttar in i huset imorgon.
Why are there two similar words right next to each other in in i huset?
Flyttar in is a phrasal verb meaning 'move in'. To say what you are moving into, you add the preposition i ('in' or 'into'). So in i works together to mean 'into', which is how Swedish expresses moving inside a specific building or space.
Why does the sentence use the present tense flyttar when the action happens tomorrow?
In Swedish, it is very common to use the present tense for future events as long as there is a time word like imorgon that makes the future meaning clear. You could say vi ska flytta (we are going to move), but just using the present tense is very natural and common.
How do we know to use huset instead of husen?
Huset is the singular definite form ('the house'). Because hus is an 'ett' word (ett hus), you add -et to the end to make it definite. If you were moving into multiple houses, you would use the plural definite form husen.
Which word gets the stress when saying flyttar in out loud?
Because flyttar in acts as a paired verb and little word (a phrasal verb), the spoken stress naturally falls heavily on the word in, rather than on the verb flyttar.
