  3. Kak, tanya soal no 2. Kl misal kalimatnya gini ” the ship that transports goods arrive at this port of at 5.30 p.m (simple present, bener gak?) ” kira2 beda pengertiannya gmn ya? Ak agak bingung, karna ada waktunya itu loh.. makasi sblm dan sesudahnya..

    • Boleh Dea pake simple present tense (kurang -s arrive nya dan maaf saya salah tulis harusnya tidak ada of :B). Saya tidak tahu kalo ada beda pengertiannya Dea. Saya mau bilang tidak ada tapi belum tahu jika ada perbedaan minor atau tidak.

      Most oddly, the present tense can convey a sense of the future, especially with verbs such as arrive, come, and leave that suggest a kind of plan or schedule: “The train from Boston arrives this afternoon at two o’clock.” http://grammar.ccc.commnet.edu/grammar/tenses/simple_present.htm
