In English grammar, the prepositions "in" and "into" are used to indicate different things:
In
Used to describe a state of being within a boundary or to indicate where something is in relation to a larger area. For example, "I am living in Delhi" or "You are in the house".
Into
Used to indicate movement or transition from one place to another, or to show when a person or thing is changing from one form or condition to another. For example, "She's gone into the house" or "Peel the cucumber and chop it into small cubes".
With some verbs, like "put", "fall", "jump", and "dive", you can use either "in" or "into" without changing the meaning. For example, "Can you put the milk in/into the fridge?".
Use "in" when you mean that a person, place, thing, or animal is located inside a location, as in:
They were already "in" (inside) the stadium
He was "in" (inside) the house when the murder was committed.
You can also use "in" to indicate that something (such as an idea) rests within an object or another idea, such as:
The chief value of money lies "in" the fact that one lives "in" a world "in" which it is overestimated.
"In" is used in two different ways here. In the first, the value of money lies "in" the fact: Literally, this means that the value of money (the idea that money has value) rests "within" the fact that a person lives "in" (inside) a world "in" which (referring again to the world) it is overestimated. The notion of living "in" a world is also a little tricky here. A person does not actually live "in" the world ("inside" the Earth's core). Instead, the presumption is that the person is an inhabitant of the world (Earth).
Use "into" in the sense of coming toward something, as in:
In defiance of the Roman Senate, Julius Caesar crossed the Rubican and marched "into" Rome with his army.
In this use, Caesar, with his army, is walking toward and entering Rome, in a menacing way, and, indeed, in a way that changed history. In that sense, this may be one of the most dramatic uses of "into" in Western civilization. Another use of "into" might read:
Captain Kirk stepped "into" the transporter, and "in" a moment, he was gone.
