Simple Future
While the simple future is most often used to talk about what a person will do, it can also be used to talk about conjecture, possibilities, and probabilities in the present, make predictions about the future, and give solemn commands.
To conjugate regular verbs in the simple future tense, simply add the correct ending to the infinitive of the verb. All verb conjugations (-ar, -er, and -ir) have the same endings in the simple future tense, and we add these endings to irregular stems as well.
Spanish Simple Future Endings
Subject | Ending |
---|---|
yo | -é |
tú, vos | -ás |
usted, él, ella | -á |
nosotros | -emos |
vosotros | -éis |
ustedes, ellos, ellas | -án |
Spanish Simple Future Irregular Endings
The simple future has relatively few irregular verbs, and they fall into three distinct categories:
- those that drop the e or i from the infinitive ending and add a d
- those that simply drop the e or i from the infinitive ending
- those that don't follow any predictable pattern and must simply be memorized
In these lessons, you learned the following irregular verbs:
Infinitive | Simple Future Stem |
---|---|
hacer | har- |
haber | habr- |
tener | tendr- |
poner | pondr- |
saber | sabr- |
salir | saldr- |
Remember, once you have the irregular stem of the verb, you simply add the future simple endings listed above!
