Unknown verb form. "Sera entretenida"

Question

I have recently seen written in text "será entretenida". "It will be entertaining" This is an unknown verb formation to me, although active/passive voice comes to mind.

Could somebody please explain the construction/use.

Thank you

I can't always do accents on my keyboard but I do try - it would not come up in the title head. - caza, Oct 26, 2011

Answer 1

I don't understand your question, caza. The sentence takes the future tense (indicative), and it's in the active voice. Entretenida is an adjective, just like entertaining.

Será entretenida- It will be entertaining.

Será mejor- It will be better.

Será profesor- He will be a teacher.

Good explanation, cogumela. - annierats, Oct 26, 2011

Well thanks very much! I had not realized entretenida was an adjective so it's all clear now. - caza, Oct 26, 2011

I know that feeling, it happens to me a lot (with English, of course) :) - cogumela, Oct 26, 2011

Answer 3

"Será" is nothing else than the verb "to be" conjugated in future, the third person of the singular. The subject is "tácito" (unseen) because the tense of the verb tells you exactly who is the subject.

Answer 4

I think they omitted the accent..."será". "
