âUppâ just means âupâ. So used for like:
- Vi mÄste gÄ upp kl. 10 imorgon (we have to go up at 10 AM tomorrow)
- den Ă€r sĂ„ högt upp att jag inte kan nĂ„ den (itâs so high up I can reach it)
- Den rör sig upp och ner (it moves up and down)
Uppförâ is used when something is moving up something. It describes a movement. Ex:
- GÄ uppför en trappa (walk up a stair)
- det Ă€r jobbigt att cykla uppför en backe (itâs exhausting to bike up a hill)
Sometimes people use âuppâ instead of âuppförâ because theyâre lazy :)

@suchaheavenlyway Thank you! Actually my question is based on the last part of your answer :). Many times I see "upp" used instead of "uppför" and I got so confused about when I can use each of which.
