Right verb

Arriver !!
Un seul mot en français pour plusieurs significations, mais plusieurs mots en anglais.
Voyons-les ensemble.

'Arriver à' pour parler d'une ville: To arrive in
Mon train arrive à Londres à 8H.

To arrive at (pour parler d'un endroit)

Ou, plus formel: 'we have to arrive at the school by eight o'clock' / 'we have to get to school by 8' / 'we have to be at school by eight o'clock'

Nous devons arriver à l'école avant 8H

To get (to-on-in)
J'arriverai sur la ligne d'arrivée avant toi!

Arriver = se passer = se produire = to happen

Euhhh! c'est arrivé hier.

Arriver = réussir à faire quelque chose = to manage (to do something)
Il n'arrivera jamais à comprendre l'informatique.

plus formel: 'he will never manage to understand IT' / 'he's never going to manage to understand IT' / 'he can't manage to understand IT'

Arriver = venir = to come
Regarde! le bus arrive.

Arriver dans le sens de ' Qu'est-ce qui t'arrive?' = 'What's the matter with you?/'What has happened to you?'

Qu'est-ce qui lui arrive?

Arriver => 'Est-ce que ça t'arrive de ...?' = Do you ever ...?'
