JMdict 1175140

In a sentence

駅(えき)stationに着(つ)いたarrivedよ

I arrived at the station

How it works

Plain and quick: there's no spoken subject — context tells you who arrived. に (to) marks 駅(えき) (station) as the destination reached, and the verb 着く(つく) (arrive) shifts to casual past 着いた(ついた) (arrived). The final よ (you know) adds a little nudge, like telling someone news they were waiting for.
