Learning Notes on Spanish vs. English Future Tense
The Spanish futuro simple directly translates to "I will" + verb in English but is often used more strictly for definite future actions. Unlike English, Spanish doesn’t require auxiliary verbs to form the future tense; instead, it adds endings to the infinitive form, e.g., yo cantaré (I will sing).
Useful phrases: "compraré" (I will buy), "tocarás" (you will play), and "veremos" (we will see) are excellent starting points. Remember, pronouns (yo, tú, él) are often dropped in Spanish because verb endings show the subject clearly.
