Arrive – Reach – Get to, Collins Webster’s


Arrive – Reach – Get to, Collins Webster’s

You use arrive, reach, and get to to say that someone comes to a place at the end of a journey.
I’ll tell Professor Hogan you’ve arrived.
He reached Biloxi in the late afternoon.
We got to the hospital at midnight.

“arrive”
You usually say that someone arrives at a place.
We arrived at Penn Station.
However, you say that someone arrives in a country or city.
He arrived in France on Tuesday.

You never say that someone “arrives to” a place.
Don’t use “arrive at” or “arrive in” in front of home, here, or there.
I arrived here yesterday.
They arrived home before us.

“reach”
Reach always comes in front of a noun. Don’t say, for example, “I reached at their house” or “I reached to their house.”
It was dark by the time I reached their house.
