can someone explain this phrase: du gehörst ja sozusagen zur Familie it's from the movie Kokowääh 2. i understood the gist of the sentence that it means something like 'you are like family'. but i am struggling to understand how the words interact with each other. namely, what "gehörst" and "zur" means in this sentence. Thanks in advance!
