How to translate Futuro to English

Notice 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.

Note the timeline

The ability to accurately locate the intended position on the timeline is an important skill for the right choice of tenses. So pay attention to the timeline in our lessons and visualize it while listening, speaking, reading or writing. After a bit practice you will be capable of selecting the right tense to use much easier.

Step by step instructions

Futuro belongs to the simple tenses group, which means that all of its conjugated forms are one word long. There are also compound (compuesto) tenses in the Spanish language, where each inflected verb form consists of two words.The verb llegar has an entirely regular conjugation in the Futuro tense of the Indicativo mood. It means this verb just follows the general rules for its conjugation group (-ar) without any exceptions, spelling corrections and the like. 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 llegar 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 the colors and shapes of the letters. They are arranged to help you find patterns and make it easier to remember these endings. Add the regular ending -é for the first person singular to create llegaré:

• yo llegaré – I will arrive

Also as in the previous case add the regular ending -ás for the second person singular to create llegarás:

• tú llegarás – you will arrive

Like previously add the regular ending -á for the third person singular to create llegará:

• él llegará – he will arrive
• ella llegará – she will arrive
• usted llegará – (formal) you will arrive

And exactly as previously add the regular ending -emos for the first person plural to create llegaremos:

• nosotros llegaremos – we will arrive
• nosotras llegaremos – (feminine) we will arrive

Again add the regular ending -éis for the second person plural to create llegaréis:

• vosotros llegaréis – (plural) you will arrive
• vosotras llegaréis – (feminine, plural) you will arrive

And similarly add the regular ending -án for the third person plural to create llegarán:

• ellos llegarán – they will arrive
• ellas llegarán – (feminine) they will arrive
• ustedes llegarán – (formal, plural) you will arrive

¡Ya está! The conjugation is now finished. That’s the final result:

yo	llegaré	I will arrive
tú	llegarás	you will arrive
él/ella/usted	llegará	he/she/it will arrive
nosotros/nosotras	llegaremos	we will arrive
