Hi [https://polyglotclub.com/language/armenian Armenian] learners! 😊<br>In this lesson, we will learn about the future tense in Armenian. We will look at how to form the future tense, as well as some examples of its use. __TOC__


The future tense in Armenian is formed using the verb stem and the suffixes -ում/-եմ. The suffix -ում is used for the first person singular (I) and third person plural (they), while the suffix -եմ is used for the second person singular (you) and first and second person plural (we, you).  
Hi [https://polyglotclub.com/language/armenian Armenian] learners! 😊<br>In this lesson, we will learn about the future tense in Armenian. The future tense is used to describe actions that will happen in the future.  


For example, the verb գիտել (to know) has the following forms in the future tense:  
__TOC__
 
== Formation ==
To form the future tense, we add different endings to the infinitive form of the verb. For example, the infinitive form of the verb "to speak" is "խոսել" (khosel). To form the future tense, we add the following endings:


{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
! Pronoun !! Ending
|-
|-
! Person !! Singular !! Plural
| Ես (yes) || -եմ (-yem)
|-
| Դու (du) || -ես (-yes)
| I || գիտեմում || գիտեմում
| Ունեմ (unem) || -ի (-i)
|-
| Մենք (menk') || -ենք (-yenk')
| You || գիտեեմ || գիտեմ
| Դուք (duk') || -եք (-yek')
|-
| Նրանք (nrank') || -են (-yen)
| He/She/It || գիտեում || գիտեմում
|-
| We || գիտեմ || գիտեմում
|-
| You || գիտեմ || գիտեմ
|-
| They || գիտեում || գիտեմում
|}
|}


The future tense can be used to talk about actions that will take place in the future. For example:  
To form the future tense of "to speak" for each pronoun, we add the appropriate ending:
 
* Ես (yes) - խոսելեմ (khoselyem) - I will speak
* Դու (du) - խոսես (khosees) - You will speak
* Ունեմ (unem) - խոսի (khosi) - He/she/it will speak
* Մենք (menk') - խոսենք (khosenk') - We will speak
* Դուք (duk') - խոսեք (khosek') - You (plural) will speak
* Նրանք (nrank') - խոսեն (khosen) - They will speak
 
Note that for some verbs, changes may be made to the stem of the verb before adding the appropriate ending.
 
== Usage ==
The future tense is used to describe actions that will happen in the future. For example:
 
* Մենք առողջարան պիտի շարադրենք: (Menk' arroghjaran piti sharadrenk') - We will attend the school tomorrow.
* Դու վաճառես այս գույնի պատվիրած ծաղիկ: (Du vacharese ays guyni patvirats tsaghik') - You will order these colored flowers.
 
We can also use adverbs of time to indicate when the action will take place in the future, such as:
 
* Ապասին կարողանանք մեկնարկել: (Apasin karoghnananq menk'narkel) - We can discuss it later.
* Մասնակցեք, ապասին բաց կլինի բանալիները: (Masnakts'ek', apasin bats' klini banalinery) - Participate, the doors will be open later.
 
== Examples ==
Let's look at some examples of the future tense in action:


{| class="wikitable"

|-
|-
| Նա կգիտեում հայերեն || /nɑ kəɡitʰum hɑjɛɾɛn/ || He/She/It will know Armenian

Armenian Grammar - Future Tense

Hi Armenian learners! 😊
In this lesson, we will learn about the future tense in Armenian. The future tense is used to describe actions that will happen in the future.

Formation

To form the future tense, we add different endings to the infinitive form of the verb. For example, the infinitive form of the verb "to speak" is "խոսել" (khosel). To form the future tense, we add the following endings:

Pronoun Ending
Ես (yes) -եմ (-yem) Դու (du) -ես (-yes) Ունեմ (unem) -ի (-i) Մենք (menk') -ենք (-yenk') Դուք (duk') -եք (-yek') Նրանք (nrank') -են (-yen)

To form the future tense of "to speak" for each pronoun, we add the appropriate ending:

  • Ես (yes) - խոսելեմ (khoselyem) - I will speak
  • Դու (du) - խոսես (khosees) - You will speak
  • Ունեմ (unem) - խոսի (khosi) - He/she/it will speak
  • Մենք (menk') - խոսենք (khosenk') - We will speak
  • Դուք (duk') - խոսեք (khosek') - You (plural) will speak
  • Նրանք (nrank') - խոսեն (khosen) - They will speak

Note that for some verbs, changes may be made to the stem of the verb before adding the appropriate ending.

Usage

The future tense is used to describe actions that will happen in the future. For example:

  • Մենք առողջարան պիտի շարադրենք: (Menk' arroghjaran piti sharadrenk') - We will attend the school tomorrow.
  • Դու վաճառես այս գույնի պատվիրած ծաղիկ: (Du vacharese ays guyni patvirats tsaghik') - You will order these colored flowers.

We can also use adverbs of time to indicate when the action will take place in the future, such as:

  • Ապասին կարողանանք մեկնարկել: (Apasin karoghnananq menk'narkel) - We can discuss it later.
  • Մասնակցեք, ապասին բաց կլինի բանալիները: (Masnakts'ek', apasin bats' klini banalinery) - Participate, the doors will be open later.

Examples

Let's look at some examples of the future tense in action:

Armenian Pronunciation English
Մենք գնում ենք: Menk' gnum enk'. We will go.
Դու թանկարժեք աշխատենք: Du tankardzhek' ashkhatenk'. You will work hard.
Ես խոսեմ, բայց առավել լավ լինելու համար, պետք է ավելի հաճախ պատահական լեզու գործել. Yes khosem, bayts' arravely lavenlu hamar, p'et'k' e aveli hajakhakan lezu gorcel. I speak, but for it to be better, it is necessary to use a more informal language.
Նրանց երկու շուն պետք է: Nrank' yerk'u shun p'et'k' e. They need two dogs.

Dialogue

Here's a dialogue to help you see the future tense in context:

  • Person 1: Քեզ պատրաստ ես գնալ վանական ասած արջերով: (Kez patrasd es gnal vanakan asats' arjerov?) - Are you ready to go to the village with the red roofs?
