"Arrive to" vs. "arrive in" vs. "arrive at" katika Kiingereza

Kwa sababu ya ushawishi wa vitenzi kama "come to", "move to" na "go to", wanafunzi wa Kiingereza mara nyingi huwa na mwelekeo wa kutumia mchanganyiko wa "arrive + to". Ingawa sentensi kama "come to me", "we moved to London" na "are you going to the party?" ziko sahihi kabisa, kitenzi "arrive" kinajitokeza kwa namna tofauti kidogo.

Kuna tukio moja tu ambapo "arrive to" ni sahihi, na ni pale ambapo "to" inamaanisha "in order to"; kwa mfano:

The cleaner arrived (in order) to clean the office.

Unapotaka kueleza kuwa unafika katika nchi, mji au kwa ujumla katika eneo la kijiografia, tumia arrive in, kwa mfano:

We will arrive in England at about 5 o'clock.

We will arrive to England at about 5 o'clock.

Call me when you arrive in Paris.

Call me when you arrive to Paris.

Katika karibu kila hali nyingine unapaswa kutumia arrive at:

When I arrived at the party, all my friends were already drunk.

When I arrived to the party, all my friends were already drunk.

Will you arrive at the meeting?

Will you arrive to the meeting?

Kuna matukio machache ya pekee ambapo arrived on inaweza kutumika (lakini kwa kutumia "arrive at" pia hautakosea):

We arrived on/at the island after a long trip.

The spacecraft arrived on/at Mars.

The police arrived too late on/at the scene of crime.
