The future tense is a grammatical form used to express actions, events, or states that are anticipated, expected, or will occur after the present moment. It is used to talk about things that will happen in the future. In English, the future tense is often formed by using auxiliary verbs like “will” or “shall” followed by the base form of the verb.
For example:
– “I will go to the store tomorrow.”
– “She shall complete her project next week.”
– “They will be arriving soon.”
The future tense can also be expressed using other constructions, such as the “be going to” form or present continuous tense, depending on the context and the speaker’s intention.
It’s important to note that English, like many languages, does not have a specific verb form for the future tense. Instead, it relies on auxiliary verbs, verb phrases, or context to indicate future actions or events.
