To Arrive
intransitive verb, godan verb
This word can be tough because it uses the same kanji as 着る (to wear). This word, however, means to arrive. You should have learned that meaning with the kanji 着 as well, so perhaps that helps. To differentiate between this and 着る, try to focus on the く. You really want to be cool (く), so you always make sure "to arrive" late to parties.
This uses a different kun'yomi reading than the one you just learned (sorry). To help you, think about this:
You wanted to arrive on time but you showed up late. How late were you? Two (つ) hours and two minutes late, to be exact.
東京に着く

ホテルに着く
