@treasuregreat.g1: I have been learning German, and nobody explained THIS to me 😭 Ich bin zu Hause. Ich gehe nach Hause. Why is it 'zu' when I'm there but 'nach' when I'm going there?! #german #deutschlernen #learngerman #myproblem
When we or a person is going somehere me use Akkusativ which is for movement for example Ich gehe in die Schule- I’m going to school. When we are in a place and aren’t moving we use Dativ for example Ich bin im Kino- I’m at the cinema. Hope it helps

Language.Haus.UK :
To say ich gehe nach Hause oder ich gehe nach Paris, this phrase indicates a movement from a temporary place to a permanent place of stay, it means going towards a place where you stay permanently or will spend time for a long time, such as going on holiday. Ich bin zu Hause is saying that you are at a certain place such as home- I am at home, also there is no movement involved. Hope this helps.

Kyle Massey :
The folks trying to explain this as Akkusativ vs Dativ aren’t helping. In fact, both zu and nach are Dativ prepositions, therefore they ALWAYS take the Dativ case - regardless of movement vs stationary. Instead, you should just learn that “zu Hause” is a fixed phrase meaning “(at) home.”

A very smart man told me before that some things don't need to be explained, just learn them and move on.

Because with Zu you’re already there so therefore you’re at home. With nach you’re headed toward a destination so you’re on your way home.

Same in English: “being AT HOME” and “going TO (my) home. Somehow an action must be explained by different words

Ich denke Zu Hause is movement( where to )und Zu mean to ( At)where are you...eg Ich bleibe zu Hause...am staying at home...it show the location where are you at home ( zu hause)
