To sign 'arrive,' start by holding your non-dominant hand out in front of you with the palm facing up. Form a flat handshape with your dominant hand, holding it slightly higher and closer to your body. Bring your dominant hand down and forward, landing the back of it flat onto the palm of your non-dominant hand, as if reaching a destination.
Sign 'TIME', 'YOU', 'ARRIVE', while furrowing your eyebrows at the end to indicate a 'WH' question. The firm landing of the hands emphasizes the completion of the journey.
Sign 'TOMORROW', 'I', 'ARRIVE'. By placing the time sign 'TOMORROW' at the beginning of the sentence, you establish the future tense before showing the action.
Sign 'MY', 'FRIEND', 'ARRIVE', 'LATE'. Ensure your non-dominant hand stays perfectly still while the dominant hand moves to show the action of arriving.
