The Future Indicative Tense
This Learning-Spanish Grammar lesson covers the Future Indicative Tense for regular verbs. Similar to English, the Future Indicative Tense in Spanish is used:
1. To express a future action or condition.
Juan no hablar durante la misa.
(Juan will not speak during the mass.)
2. To express something that is probable and phrased in a question.
Qu ser lo que te preocupas?
(What is bothering/preoccupying you?)
The conjugation pattern is standard. Unlike other tenses, the future tense in Spanish is simple, as its ending is the same in -ar, -er, and -ir verbs. Its conjugation is as follows:
Hablar (to have)
yo hablar (I will speak) nosotros hablaremos (we will speak)
t hablars (you will speak) ellos hablarn (they will speak)
l hablar (he will speak) ellas hablarn (they will speak)
ella hablar (she will speak) ustedes hablarn (they will speak)
usted hablar (you will speak)
Examples:
Ellos hablarn mucho del...
