✨ Topic: Simple Future of *-IR* verbs
Last week, we learned about the future with *ir + infinitive* (example: vou partir). This form is used every day and for near future actions. Today, we focus on the more formal and traditional Simple Future tense for *-IR* verbs.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
🔍 Conjugation of the verb *partir* (to leave) in the simple future:
- Eu partirei [par-ti-REI]
- Tu partirás [par-ti-RÁS]
- Ele/Ela partirá [par-ti-RÁ]
- Nós partiremos [par-ti-RE-mos]
- Vós partireis [par-ti-REIS]
- Eles/Elas partirão [par-ti-RÃO]
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
✍️ Practical examples:
- Eu partirei para o Brasil na próxima semana. (I will leave for Brazil next week.)
- Nós abriremos um novo negócio em Lisboa. (We will open a new business in Lisbon.)
- Eles decidirão o plano amanhã de manhã. (They will decide the plan tomorrow morning.)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
💡 Important tip: Use the simple future for formal situations, certain plans, or to sound more elegant. For daily speech and near future, keep using ir + infinitive.
Practice the simple future with *-IR* verbs and your Portuguese will sound even more natural! 😊🔥
