  1. 1.

    I swim in a pool.

    Translator's comment

    = I normally do my swimming in a pool. In the sense that when you swim, you do it in a pool and not in the ocean, for instance. If this were purely a statement about the fact that you swim regularly, we would normally just say “I’m a swimmer”, and WHERE you swim would be secondary information. However, if that issue were pressed, you would answer with “I swim in a pool.”
