Hi [https://polyglotclub.com/language/corsican Corsican] learners! 😊<br>In this lesson, we will learn about the future tense in Corsican. We will look at the rules for forming the future tense, some examples, and practice using it. Let's get started! __TOC__


==Rules==
Hi [https://polyglotclub.com/language/corsican Corsican] learners! 😊<br>In this lesson, we will learn about the future tense in Corsican. The future tense is used to describe an action that will happen in the future.
The future tense in Corsican is formed by adding the suffix -à to the verb stem. The verb stem is the part of the verb that remains after removing the infinitive ending -e. For example, the verb stem of parlà (to speak) is parl-.  


The future tense can also be formed with the auxiliary verb aghju (I have). This is done by conjugating aghju in the present tense and adding the infinitive form of the verb. For example, the future tense of parlà (to speak) is aghju à parlà (I will speak).
