<h2>Introduction</h2>
=== Introduction to the Future Tense ===
 
The '''future tense''' in Polish is used to describe actions that will occur at a later time. It is essential for making plans, discussing intentions, and expressing hopes. Understanding how to form the future tense opens up a whole new range of conversations you can have in Polish.

In Polish, the future tense can be formed in two ways:
 
1. '''Simple Future Tense''': Used for actions that will be completed in the future.

To form the future tense, you typically use the verb "być" (to be) in the future tense along with the infinitive form of the main verb.
 
Here are the conjugations of "być" for the future tense:
