1. come upon, arrive — To come upon, arrive at, or happen to someone or something, encompassing both the physical arrival of persons and the onset of events or ages. Spanish consistently uses 'venir' (come) across all forms, Arabic uses 'yaʾtī' (يأتي, come) uniformly, Korean uses 'imhada' (임하다, come upon) and 'oda' (오다, come), Hindi uses 'ānā' (आना, come) in all forms including 'āne vālī' (आने वाली, coming), and Swahili uses '-kuja' (come) and '-jia' (come to). The participial forms meaning 'coming/future' (S67549, S67550) represent the same lexical sense in progressive or attributive aspect, not a distinct meaning. All forms share the core notion of approaching or arriving. 10×
