How to translate Futuro to English

Note that the phrases in English 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 its inflected forms are one word long. There are also compound (compuesto) tenses in the Spanish language, where each conjugated form consists of two words. The verb haber has an irregular conjugation in the Futuro tense of the Indicativo mood. The basis for this conjugation is an irregular stem habr, but all the endings stay the same as in the regular conjugationUse the irregular stem habr in each person Next, add to this irregular stem 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. See the image on the side showing all the six endings. Notice the shapes and colors 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 in order to get habré:

• yo habré – I

Again add the regular ending -ás for the second person singular in order to get habrás:

• tú habrás – you

And again add the regular ending -á for the third person singular in order to get habrá:

• él habrá – he
• ella habrá – she
• usted habrá – (formal) you

And as before add the regular ending -emos for the first person plural in order to get habremos:

• nosotros habremos – we
• nosotras habremos – (feminine) we

And one more time add the regular ending -éis for the second person plural in order to get habréis:

• vosotros habréis – (plural) you
• vosotras habréis – (feminine, plural) you

Similarly add the regular ending -án for the third person plural in order to get habrán:

• ellos habrán – they
• ellas habrán – (feminine) they
• ustedes habrán – (formal, plural) you

This is it! The conjugation is now complete. That’s the final result:

yo	habré
tú	habrás
él/ella/usted	habrá
nosotros/nosotras	habremos
