用法說明
How is "Arriving" different from similar structures?What usage mistakes are common with "Arriving"?
arriving at vs arriving in vs arriving to
- arriving at 通常用於到達一個具體的、較小的地點，如建築物、地址或特定場所。
- arriving in 則用於到達一個較大的地理區域，如城市、國家或地區。
- arriving to 在傳統文法中被視為不正確，應避免使用。但在非正式口語中，有時會聽到
arrive to表示「開始做某事」或「達到某種狀態」，並非指物理上的到達。 EN: We will be arriving at the hotel around 3 PM. 翻譯: 我們將在下午三點左右抵達飯店。
EN:She remembers arriving in Tokyo for the first time.
翻譯:她記得第一次抵達東京的情景。
總結建議
一般情況下，使用 arrive at（小地點）和 arrive in（大地區），並避免使用 arrive to 來表示物理上的到達。

常見錯誤
What are common mistakes with "Arriving"?Which "Arriving" sentences look correct but are wrong?
×I am arriving to the airport at 5 PM.
✓I am arriving at the airport at 5 PM.
動詞 "arrive" 後面通常接介系詞 "at" 表示到達具體地點（如建築物、車站），或 "in" 表示到達較大的區域（如城市、國家）。"arrive to" 是常見的學習者錯誤。
×She is arriving home at 7 o'clock.
✓She is arriving home at 7 o'clock. (or: She will arrive home at 7 o'clock.)
雖然句子本身文法正確，但 "arrive" 是瞬間動詞，在表示未來計畫時，使用現在進行式 "is arriving" 聽起來較不自然，通常用 "will arrive" 或 "is going to arrive" 更為常見。使用現在進行式時，語境通常需有更明確的「正在途中」或「即將發生」的意味。
×He arrived to the party late.
✓He arrived at the party late.
與錯誤1類似，過去式 "arrived" 後面也應接 "at" 表示到達具體活動或聚會地點，而非 "to"。
×I am arriving there tomorrow.
✓I will arrive there tomorrow. (or: I am going to arrive there tomorrow.)
當句子中有明確的未來時間副詞（如 tomorrow, next week）且主詞為 "I" 或 "we" 時，使用 "will arrive" 或 "be going to arrive" 來表達未來計畫比 "am arriving" 更自然、更常見。"am arriving" 多用於行程已確定（如航班、行程表）或強調「正在路上」的語境。
×The news of his success arriving yesterday.
✓The news of his success arrived yesterday.
這裡 "arrive" 用作比喻「消息傳到」，主詞是 "news"，應使用簡單過去式 "arrived" 來描述過去發生的單一事件。使用 "arriving" 會造成句子不完整（成為分詞片語），缺少主要動詞。
