Common Mistakes
Mistake: Using the present tense instead of the future: 'Arribo mañana'.
Correct: Use the future tense: 'Arribaré mañana'.
Why: While Spanish sometimes uses the present for near future, the future tense is more explicit and often preferred for clarity.
Mistake: Confusing the future 'arribará' (he/she will arrive) with the present 'arriba' (he/she arrives).
Correct: Remember the infinitive stem plus ending: 'arribar' + 'á' = 'arribará'.
Why: The structure of the future tense is different from the present, and learners might incorrectly apply present tense rules.
