"The young men are in shirts."

Translation: A fiatal férfiak ingben vannak.

[AzzyDassler]

What is the vital difference between "on somebody is something" (like a gyerekeken nadrág van) and "somebody is in something" (like this here férfiak ingben vannak)?

[SusanRankin1]

I am confused about this too! When is it ferfiakan and when is it ingben? (Not sure if I used the correct vowel harmony feel free to correct ....)

[MelissaAWood]

Why not "ingekben vannak"? I can see that the sentence above would be understood and probably more often used, but is it wrong to use the plural?

[jsiehler]

It's not grammatically wrong, but if you told me A fiatal férfiak ingekben vannak then I would expect that each young man is wearing multiple shirts. Maybe it's cold out, or they just like layers.

Why not "... vannak ingben."?

[MolnarMihaly]

shirts = ingek de a hülye fordító mit tud?
