How to translate Futuro to English

Notice that the English phrases provided below next to each conjugation are not direct translations from Spanish to English. They are usually the closest general equivalents. The example differences are:

• In Spanish conjugation, there is the form usted in the third person singular. But this person does not translate to the English third person singular. It translates to the so called formal you and uses the inflected form which is most often represented as he/she/it in English conjugation charts.
• Similar situation happens in the third person plural, where ustedes translates to the English plural formal you but uses the form which corresponds to the they form in English.
• Tenses are used differently in Spanish and English, so the actual translation should always take into account the context and focus on translating the meaning, not just words.
• In both languages each verb may have multiple meanings and not every meaning translates directly to the other language. Here also, the context and focusing on the particular meaning helps to create the most accurate translation.

Step by step instructions

Futuro belongs to the simple tenses group, which means that all of the inflected forms are one word long. There are also compound (compuesto) tenses in the Spanish language, where each inflected form consists of two words.The verb producir has an almost regular conjugation in the Futuro tense of the Indicativo mood. An exception is the first person singular, which has an irregular form. It means that the other persons simply follow the basic rules for this conjugation group (-ir) without further exceptions. The basis for this conjugation is the infinitive of this verb, so it’s really simple to create, and only a few exceptions exist.Use the infinitive producir in each person. Next, add to the infinitive the endings specific to each person. In this tense we use the exact same endings in each of the three conjugation groups -ar, -er, -ir. Analyze the image showing all six endings. Note both the colors and shapes of the letters. It should help you find patterns and make it easier to remember these endings. Add the regular ending -é for the first person singular to create produciré:

• yo produciré – I will produce

And again add the regular ending -ás for the second person singular to create producirás:

• tú producirás – you will produce

And add the regular ending -á for the third person singular to create producirá:

• él producirá – he will produce
• ella producirá – she will produce
• usted producirá – (formal) you will produce

Again add the regular ending -emos for the first person plural to create produciremos:

• nosotros produciremos – we will produce
• nosotras produciremos – (feminine) we will produce

And similarly add the regular ending -éis for the second person plural to create produciréis:

• vosotros produciréis – (plural) you will produce
• vosotras produciréis – (feminine, plural) you will produce

Similarly add the regular ending -án for the third person plural to create producirán:

• ellos producirán – they will produce
• ellas producirán – (feminine) they will produce
• ustedes producirán – (formal, plural) you will produce

¡Ya está! The conjugation is now done. The final result looks as follows:

yo	produciré	I will produce
tú	producirás	you will produce
