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.


Finish this lesson and explore these related pages: Armenian Alphabet & Personal Pronouns.

Formation[edit | edit source]

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[edit | edit source]

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[edit | edit source]

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[edit | edit source]

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?
  • Person 2: Ես գնում եմ: (Yes gnum em.) - I'm going.
