覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
come は「こちらへ来る」、in は「中へ」。まず「話し手のいる側へ来て、そのまま内側に入る」という1枚の場面で覚えると定着しやすいです。go in が単に「中へ入っていく」動きなのに対し、come in は相手や自分のいる場所に入ってくる感じが出やすいのがポイント。玄関で Please come in. と招き入れる、店に客が come in する、教室に先生が come in する、のように「外から中へ」の定番場面とセットで覚えると迷いません。
Remember `come` as movement toward the speaker, and `in` as going inside. Put them together as one scene: someone comes toward you and enters the room. This helps you keep it separate from `go in`, which focuses on going inside, not toward the person speaking.

come in の語源・成り立ち Etymology
come in は come + in で、「こちらへ来る」が境界の内側に入る動作へ絞られた表現です。come は古英語 cuman のゲルマン系で、become や incoming に同じ核があり、in が付くことで「到着」より一歩進んだ「中へ入る」がはっきりします。
"Come in" combines "come" and "in." "Come" comes from Old English "cuman," a Germanic verb meaning to move toward a place, and "in" narrows that movement to crossing into an inside space. So the phrase developed from simple arrival to the more specific idea of entering. Related forms include "become" and "incoming."
