According to Cambridge Dictionary Online and Newbury House Dictionary, the word sweat is uncountable which means that indefinite article an can't be used before sweat. This site states that "we use the indefinite article, a/an, with count nouns." While I was searching online, I found an idiomatic expression but into doesn’t exist.
However, the preposition into has been added right here. In a word, can I rely on this site because I couldn't find `break into a sweat’ in dictionaries? Is this expression common among [STRIKE]English native speakers [/STRIKE]native English speakers?
