Rule reminder

In Italian, when 'quando' refers to a future event, it must be followed by the FUTURO SEMPLICE — not the present indicative. This contrasts with English ('when I arrive' uses present). Example: 'Quando arriverò, ti chiamo.' Using the present 'quando arrivo' implies a habitual/general truth, not a future plan. This is a critical error-avoidance point for B2 learners.
