In Spanish, as in English, the future tense is one of many ways to express actions or conditions that will happen in the future.
True
Present indicative
Present indicative
Conveys a sense of certainty that the action will occur.
True
Llegan a la costa mañana
They arrive at the coast tomorrow.
Present subjunctive
Present subjunctive
Refers to an action that has yet to occur: used after verbs of will and influence.
True
Prefiero que lleguen a la costa mañana.
I prefer that they arrive at the coast tomorrow.
Ir a + [infinitive]
Ir a + [infinitive]
Expresses the near future; is commonly used in everyday speech.
True
Van a llegar a la costa mañana.
They are going to arrive at the coast tomorrow.
Future tense
Future tense
Expresses an action that will occur; often implies more certainty than ir a + [infinitive]
True
Llegarán a la costa mañana.
They will arrive at the coast tomorrow.
The English word will can refer either to future time or to someone’s willingness to do something. To express willingness, Spanish uses the verb querer + [infinitive], not the future tense.
True
¿Quieres contribuir a la protección del medio ambiente?
Will you contribute to the protection of the environment?
Quiero ayudar, pero no sé por dónde empezar.
I’ll help, but I don’t know where to begin.
In Spanish, the future tense may be used to express conjecture or probability, even about present events. English expresses this sense in various ways, such as wonder, bet, must, be, may, might, and probably.
True
¿Qué hora será?
I wonder what time it is.
Ya serán las dos de la mañana.
It must be two a.m. by now.
¿Lloverá mañana?
Do you think it will rain tomorrow?
Probablemente tendremos un poco de sol y un poco de viento.
It’ll probably be a bit sunny and windy.
When the present subjunctive follows a conjunction of time like cuando, después (de) que, en cuanto, hasta que, and tan pronto como, the future tense is often used in the main clause of the sentence.
True
Nos quedaremos lejos de la costa hasta que pase el huracán.
We’ll stay far from the coast until the hurricane passes.
En cuanto termine de llover, regresaremos a casa.
As soon as it stops raining, we’ll go back home.
Tan pronto como salga el sol, iré a la playa a tomar fotos.
As soon as the sun comes up, I’ll go to the beach to take fotos.
The subjunctive in adverbial
The subjunctive in adverbial clauses
In Spanish, adverbial clauses are commonly introduced by conjunctions. Certain conjunctions require the subjunctive, while others can be followed by the subjunctive or the indicative, depending on the context in which they are used.
True
Certain conjunctions are always followed by the subjunctive because they introduce actions or states that are uncertain or have not yet happened. These conjunctions commonly express purpose, condition, or intent.
True
Main clause
Se acabará el petróleo en pocos años.
