'Into' indicates movement from outside to inside ('walk into a room'), change of state ('turn water into ice'), division ('cut into pieces'), or involvement ('look into a matter'). It differs from 'in' which typically shows location rather than movement. 'Be into something' informally means being interested in it.

「into」表示从外部到内部的移动（「walk into a room」）、状态变化（「turn water into ice」）、分割（「cut into pieces」）或参与（「look into a matter」）。它与通常表示位置而非移动的「in」不同。「be into something」非正式地表示对某事感兴趣。

«Into» indica movimiento de fuera hacia dentro («walk into a room»), cambio de estado («turn water into ice»), división («cut into pieces»), o involucramiento («look into a matter»). Difiere de «in» que típicamente muestra ubicación en vez de movimiento. «Be into something» informalmente significa estar interesado en ello.

「into」は外から中への移動（「walk into a room」）、状態の変化（「turn water into ice」）、分割（「cut into pieces」）、または関与（「look into a matter」）を示します。通常、移動ではなく位置を示す「in」とは異なります。「be into something」はくだけた言い方で、それに興味があることを意味します。

'Into'는 바깥에서 안으로의 이동('walk into a room'), 상태 변화('turn water into ice'), 분할('cut into pieces'), 관여('look into a matter')를 나타냅니다. 이동보다는 위치를 나타내는 'in'과 다릅니다. 'Be into something'은 비격식적으로 ~에 관심이 있다는 뜻입니다.
