Noun + میں

In or Inside

Level 1

Read the noun and میں together as one location phrase.

How It Works

بیگ میں means in the bag. The noun بیگ keeps its spelling before میں.

کمرے میں uses the oblique form of کمرہ. The ending belongs to the noun, not to میں.

چابی دراز میں ہے places the key in the drawer. The location phrase comes before the form of “to be”.

میں can mark a time or field as well as a physical place. Learn its relationship from the whole sentence.
