The Simple Future

There are two ways to form the future tense in Spanish: the informal future (ir + a + infinitive) and the simple future (el futuro simple). The simple future, unlike the informal future, is expressed in a single conjugated verb.

Uses of the 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.

Regular Simple Future Forms

To form the simple future tense, simply add the correct ending to the infinitive of the verb. All verb conjugations (-ar, -er, and -ir)—including irregular verbs—have the same endings in the simple future tense.

Spanish Simple Future Endings

Subject	Ending
yo	-é
tú	-ás
usted, él, ella	-á
nosotros, nosotras	-emos
vosotros, vosotras	-éis
ustedes, ellos, ellas	-án

Irregular Simple Future Forms

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

Remember that the irregular simple future forms use the same stems as the irregular conditional forms, which you studied in the last level. And just like the conditional, once you have the stem, you simply add the following endings:
