IWhat to watch for

In the present subjunctive every form of llegar keeps the u: llegue, llegues, llegue, lleguemos, lleguéis, lleguen. The subjunctive endings of -ar verbs start with e, and before e the g needs a u to stay hard — without it you would write 'llege' and read it like gente.

Llegar lives in time clauses about the future: cuando llegues, avísame; antes de que lleguen los invitados; en cuanto llegue el técnico. Those conjunctions take the subjunctive whenever the arrival hasn't happened yet.
