The term "approaching" is often employed by authors to convey both physical movement and the anticipation of a significant moment. It marks the nearing of tangible phenomena, such as a storm gathering force [1] or a figure’s footsteps drawing closer [2], while also signaling the imminent arrival of abstract events, like a turning moral tide or the culmination of internal thought processes [3]. In narrative passages, its use helps to create suspense and transition, whether it be the physical approach of characters moving into view [4] or the figurative approach of impending change that shapes the story’s direction [5].
