Sindhi Grammar - Future Tense

Hi Sindhi learners! 😊
In this lesson, we will learn about the future tense in Sindhi grammar. We will also explore the culture and interesting facts related to Sindhi language. Sindhi is the official language of Pakistan and is spoken by millions of people around the world. Sindhi is also one of the oldest languages known in the world, with a rich literary history. Sindhi is a versatile language that has been influenced by Sanskrit, Persian, and Arabic.

Before we dive into the future tense, let's quickly revise the present tense. In the present tense, we add the suffix -يندا to the verb base. For example:

Sindhi	Pronunciation	English
ڪتاب پڙهيندا آهي	Kutab parhinnda aahi	He is reading a book.

Now that we have revised the present tense, let's move onto the future tense.

Formation of the Future Tense

To form the future tense, we add the suffix -ڻو to the verb base. For example:

Sindhi	Pronunciation	English
ڪتاب پڙهيڻو آهي	Kutab parhinnavo aahi	He will read a book.

Let's take another example:

Sindhi	Pronunciation	English
آئيون ٻڌيڻو	AiyouN bhaDdhiNvo	I will come tomorrow.

Here, we can see that we add the suffix -ڻو to the verb base. The subject pronoun can be added before the verb if needed. For example, if we want to say 'I will read a book', we can say:

Sindhi	Pronunciation	English
منهنجون ڪتاب پڙهيڻو آهي	MenuNjoN kutab parhinnavo aahi	I will read a book.
