==Forming the Future Tense==
Hi [https://polyglotclub.com/language/georgian Georgian] learners! 😊<br>In this lesson, we will explore the Georgian Future tense. As an intermediate level learner, this is an essential topic that will help you communicate your future plans effectively.  
The future tense in Georgian is formed by adding the suffix -ები (-ebi) to the verb stem. The verb stem is the part of the verb that remains after removing the infinitive ending -ო (-o). For example, the verb stem of ვიცოდები (vitsod-ebi) is ვიცოდ (vitsod).  


The future tense can also be formed by adding the prefix მო- (mo-) to the verb stem. This is used for verbs that begin with a vowel. For example, the verb აღარ (ag-ar) becomes მოაღარები (moag-arebi).

== 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:


===Examples===
{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
! Georgian !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
|-
! Georgian !! Pronunciation !! English Translation
| ჩემი დამწყების ფერი იქნება. || chemi damc'qebis peri ikneba. || I'll be at the beginning of my work.
|-
|-
| ვიცოდები || vitsod-ebi || I will understand
| შენი მეგობრები ქარიან. || sheni megobrebi karīan. || Your friends will come by car.
|-
|-
| მოგვიწევს || mogvits-evs || He/She will understand
| მას აქვს ერთი დამაგრებელი. || mas akvs erti damagrebeli. || He has one decorator.
|-
|-
| მოაღარები || moag-arebi || We will not do
| ჩვენ ხელი უნდა ვმოლოდოთ. || chven xeli unda vmolodot̩. || We must wait.
|-
| ვინახავები || vinax-avebi || They will see
|}
|}


==Usage==
Notice how the verb form changes according to the subject pronoun. In Georgian grammar, it is essential to maintain the proper ending of the verb based on the structure of each sentence.
The future tense is used to talk about actions that will take place in the future. It can also be used to make predictions or assumptions about the future.
 
== Time Expressions in Future Tense ==
 
In Georgian grammar, time expressions are essential to establish the time of an event. The future tense in Georgian is commonly used with the following time expressions:
 
* ხვალ (khval) - tomorrow
* ახალა (akhala) - now
* მარცხვენით (marchtsvenit) - after tomorrow
* შემდეგ (shemdeg) - next
* მერე (mere) - later
* დღეს (dġes) - today
* ერთი დღე მერე (erti dġe mere) - the day after tomorrow
 
Here are some examples of how to use time adverbs with future tense:


===Examples===
{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
! Georgian !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
|-
! Georgian !! Pronunciation !! English Translation
| ხვალ გავაქვეყნებთ. || khval gavākveqnebt̩. || We will announce it tomorrow.

|-
| მას არ აღარ მოაღარებს || mas ar ag-ar moag-arebs || He/She won't do it
