yes,you're right. "εν" is an ancient adverb that we still use in some expressions that we borrow from ancient greek for example "in cold blood=εν ψυχρώ".we use the phrase in modern greek even though we wouldn't use εν or ψυχρω(which is in dative case not used in modern greek)seperately.For example the word ok=εντάξει is actually εν+ταξη(order) in dative=ενταξει which literally means " in order".So you will not have to actually learn how to use εν,but when you see it learn these little expressions.
