Llegar (to arrive) in the present: 14 free exercises with an explanation after every answer, plus the full conjugation table.

IWhat to watch for

In the present llegar is a regular -ar verb: llego, llegas, llega, llegamos, llegáis, llegan. The g→gu spelling change it is known for only appears before an e, so it never touches the present indicative — that comes in llegué and llegue.

Watch the preposition: Spanish arrives a a place (llego a casa, llegamos al aeropuerto), not en. The present also covers timetables (el tren llega a las ocho) and the useful llegar a + infinitive, to go as far as doing something.
