Arrivano

Arrivano is the third-person plural present indicative form of the Italian verb arrivare, meaning to arrive. It is used with plural subjects, such as loro or any plural noun, to describe something or someone arriving.

As a regular -are verb, arrivare follows a standard present tense paradigm. The present indicative forms are: io arrivo, tu arrivi, lui/lei arriva, noi arriviamo, voi arrivate, loro arrivano. In compound tenses, arrivera uses the auxiliary essere, with the past participle agreeing in gender and number (sono arrivato, siamo arrivati, sono arrivate, etc.). The verb can also appear in other tenses and moods, but arrivano specifically denotes present or near-future arrival when used in the present tense.

Usage and context: Arrivano describes events occurring in the present or near future when paired with appropriate time expressions, such as "Arrivano domani" (They arrive tomorrow). It is commonly used to report the arrival of people, vehicles, shipments, or events, and appears in news reporting, travel contexts, logistics updates, and everyday conversation. In literary or formal styles, it may appear within broader narrative descriptions of movements or arrivals.
