inside a body or object

Happening inside a body or thing, not on the outside.

Vzorec užití: [something] happens internally
Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes use "internally" when they just mean "inside" a room or building (e.g., *"I will stay internally"*). Use "indoors" or "inside" for locations in a house or building, and "internally" mainly for inside bodies, objects, systems, or organizations.
Synonyma
inside (More general and often used with movement or position; less specific about medical or mechanical contexts.) | within (More formal; often used in written or technical descriptions of processes inside an object or system.)
Antonyma
externally (Describes something happening on the outside of a body or object.) | outside (General everyday opposite, usually about location on or beyond the outer surface.)
