What does this mean in English? "あそこにいる人はAさんです。"

I take it that "いる人" means "person who comes/will come". Does the sentence mean the person who comes/will come from over there is A san?

I take it that "いる人" means "person who comes/will come". Does the sentence mean the person who comes/will come from over there is A san?

Answer

Actually "person who come/will come" is "あそこから来る人".
"あそこにいる人" is "person who is there".

So "あそこにいる人はAさんです" just means "that's A san".

Answer

You may be mixing up くる(come) with いる(is).

So "あそこにいる人はAさんです." means "The person (who is) over there is A-san".
