arrive

音標(biāo)發(fā)音

1200年左右進(jìn)入英語(yǔ)，直接源自古法語(yǔ)的ariver，意爲(wèi)來到陸地；最初源自拉丁語(yǔ)的adripam：ad (去) + ripa (岸上），意爲(wèi)到達(dá)岸上。

arrive的基本意思是“到達(dá)”,可用於具躰地點(diǎn),也可以用於指抽象事物,還可表示“(時(shí)間)到來”。arrive引申可表示“新鮮事物的出現(xiàn)”“人在事業(yè)等方麪取得成功”等。
arrive用作不及物動(dòng)詞時(shí),常可與介詞at〔in, on〕連用。arrive at表示“到達(dá)某地點(diǎn)”時(shí),往往指到達(dá)較小的地點(diǎn); arrive in表示“到達(dá)的區(qū)域”時(shí),往往指較大的地方; arrive on則表示“到達(dá)某現(xiàn)場(chǎng)”。
arrive可與表示地點(diǎn)和時(shí)間的副詞連用,但是不能與表示意圖或程度的副詞連用。
arrive的過去分詞可用作形容詞,表示“已到達(dá)的”。
arrived，arrive的過去分詞，做形容詞時(shí)，指“已到的”，如the newly arrived traveller（新到的旅遊者）?，F(xiàn)在不習(xí)慣說be arrived，如is arrived和are arrived；
廻到家用arrive home，不用arrive at home，因裡麪的home是副詞；
arrive(d)是一時(shí)的，短暫的動(dòng)作，不能用完成時(shí)態(tài)，不能說He has arrived for a week去讓這個(gè)動(dòng)作持續(xù)一段時(shí)間，衹能說He arrived a week ago。

“When did you arrive?”“Late this afternoon.”
“你什麼時(shí)候到的?”“今天下午比較晚的時(shí)候到的?！?/li>
