== What is the Future Tense in Georgian? == | |||
In [[:en:Grammar|grammar]], the future tense is the verb tense used to describe an action that has not yet happened. In Georgian, we use verb conjugation to indicate the future tense. | |||
Here's an example of how we form the future tense in Georgian: | |||
| ვიაროთ || viarōt̩ || We will go | | |||
| წავისმინოთ || tsávismônōt̩ || We will hear | | |||
| გითხრათ || git̩xrāt̩ || You will tell| | |||
| გახდით || gaxdīt̩ || You will become| | |||
| ის ვიცი || is' vitsi || He/She knows| | |||
| გავიდეთ || gavīdēt̩ || They will leave| | |||
Note that the future stem of each verb is formed by adding the suffix “-ი” ("-i") to the infinitive form of the verb. | |||
== Cases in Future Tense == | |||
Like in other tenses, the future tense modifies its form depending on the case of the subject. | |||
Below is an example of how the future tense changes according to the subject case: | |||
