Which one of these sentence are true?
When did you arrive?
When did you arrived?
Hi
I think none of them are correct because the verb "arrive" is always being used with verb "has" or "had" not did. I mean we use it as passive form.
Ofcourse I am not sure about this and waiting for someone to guide me through.
:happy:

The first sentence is correct. Because when you want to make a question using simple past tense, you have to use the verb in its simple form inside the question.

I could be wrong but don't you think when we say "I arrived at somewhere or ect." we don't actually do an action? but describe a situation? which should be in some different way?
I don't know If I explain my meaning clear :sad:
please inform me about this cause now it's getting really interesting to me :rolleye:

It's as easy as ABC & I wonder why you get it the wrong way.
Look.The question is about the action of arriving & specially its time. When you reach or get to a place, you actually arrive there. Now if you wanna say the time of doing this action, sure you'll say:
I arrived in Tehran yesterday ( like : I saw this movie yesterday )
Now the question form of the above sentence:
When did you arrive in Tehran? ( like : When did you see this movie )
And more friendly : When did you arrive?
I hope it's all clear now
;)
