"I am also standing by this door."

Translation: Én is ennél az ajtónál állok.

[AtalinaDove]

How can you figure out where to put "is" in a sentence?

[vvsey]

The word "is" comes right after what it refers to. So, if it is "I, also", then "én is". If it is "at the door also", then "az ajtónál is" . Etc.

[AtalinaDove]

Ah. That makes a lot of sense. Thanks!

[KrisWD]

Why állok, not állom? Because there is no object?

[ion1122]

In order to use the definite case, it is not enough that there be a definite object (door, etc. ) That object must also appear in the sentence as a direct object. That is not the case with the sentence here.

[ugurkavalci]

I would ask the same question, the sentence includes "that particular door" so why not use the definitive tense allom

[RyagonIV]

Whether you use definite conjugation or not is a matter of whether the direct object is definite, i.e. the object in accusative case, i.e. the object with a -t suffix. Since áll is (pretty much) completely intransitive, you won't have much of a chance encountering állom.

But you can paint this door if you like: "Én is ezt az ajtót festem." -t suffix and definite conjugation, there you go.

[PetrVarga]

Could it be also ennel az ajtonal is allok?

[RyagonIV]

If you can stand by multiple objects at once, sure.

[MitjaSterman]

You should include én; Ennel az ajtónál én is állok

[mary714777]

What is the difference between ebben and ennel?

[jzsuzsi]

ebben = ez+ ben (in this)

ennél = ez+ nél (by this, at this)

[David236909]

I tried "ez az ajtó mellett", rather than "ennél az ajtónál"
