The Future Verb Tense
El Futúro
 The future verb tense is used to discuss events that will
happen in the…future!
 This is the equivalent to English sentences like:
We will go to the game tonight.
She will probably dump him on Facebook.
El Futúro
 The future verb tense is one of the easier verb tenses to
use in Spanish because there is only ONE set of
endings for all forms of verbs (-ar, -er, -ir)
 What makes this verb tense unusual is that you add
the endings to the entire infinitive rather than only to
the stem. This means you WILL NOT remove the –ar,
-er, or –ir ending.
