As a Southern Betsimisaraka Malagasy language teacher with 20 years of experience, I'm excited to teach you about the simple future tense in our language. This lesson is designed for those who are just starting to learn Southern Betsimisaraka Malagasy as part of the "Complete 0 to A1 Southern Betsimisaraka Malagasy Course". By the end of this lesson, you will be able to use the simple future tense in your conversations.
=== Understanding the Simple Future Tense ===
 
The simple future tense is used to describe actions that will happen after the present moment. It allows you to express your thoughts about future events, plans, or predictions. In Southern Betsimisaraka Malagasy, the future tense is typically formed by using the verb "hanao," which means "to do" or "to make," along with the root of the verb you want to use.
 
Here’s a basic structure:
 
* '''Subject + h + verb root + ending'''
 
In this structure:
 
* The subject tells us who is doing the action.
 
* "h" indicates that the action is in the future.
 
* The verb root is the action you want to perform.
 
* The ending can change based on the subject.
 
=== Structure of Simple Future Tense ===


<h2>Overview of the Simple Future Tense</h2>
Let’s break down how to form the simple future tense in Southern Betsimisaraka Malagasy:


Like in English or French, there are different ways to express future ideas in Southern Betsimisaraka Malagasy. The most basic way is to use the simple future tense, which is formed by adding certain particles to the end of a verb.
1. '''Choose the subject''': This can be a pronoun like "I" (aho), "you" (ianao), "he" (izy), etc.


For example, to say "I will go to the market," you would use the word "ho" before the verb "mandeha," the word for "go": "Hombaiko eto am-pamoretana."
2. '''Use "h"''': This prefix indicates the future tense.


<h2>Formation of the Simple Future Tense</h2>
3. '''Add the verb root''': This is the main action word in its base form.


To form the simple future tense in Southern Betsimisaraka Malagasy, you need to add one of the following particles to the end of the verb without any space:
4. '''Add the appropriate ending''': Depending on the subject, the ending may vary.


- Ho
=== Examples of Simple Future Tense ===
- Hio
- Heno
- Henoy


Each of these particles is used with a different subject pronoun. The table below shows how to form the simple future tense with each subject pronoun:
To illustrate the simple future tense, let's look at some examples:


{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
!Subject Pronoun !! Particle !! Example
 
! Southern Betsimisaraka Malagasy !! Pronunciation !! English
 
|-
|-
|Tiako || ho || Hikaroka aho.
 
| Hanao aho fahandro || /hɪˈnaw ɑˈhu faˈhandru/ || I will cook
 
|-
|-
|Ako || ho || Handeha aho.
 
| Hanao ianao hianatra || /hɪˈnaw iˈnɑʊ hɪˈɑnɑtrɑ/ || You will study
 
|-
|-
|Izaho || hio || Hiova izaho.
 
| Hanao izy milalao || /hɪˈnaw iˈzi miˈlɑlɑu/ || He will play
 
|-
|-
|Izy || ho || Hokohonako izy.
 
| Hanao isika mihinana || /hɪˈnaw iˈsikɑ miˈhinaˈnɑ/ || We will eat
 
|-
|-
|Izay || heno || Henoy ho tsaroako azy.
 
| Hanao izy ireo mandamina || /hɪˈnaw iˈzi iˈrɛʊ mɑnˈdɑmɪnɑ/ || They will organize
 
|-
|-
|Ireto || heno || Heno ny fitondran-kevitra.
 
| Hanao aho mividy || /hɪˈnaw ɑˈhu miˈvidi/ || I will buy
 
|-
|-
|Izay rehetra || henoy || Henoy ho lasa izy rehetra.
|}


In addition, some verbs require a slight modification in spelling before adding the particle. For example, the verb "miverina," meaning "to return," changes to "mivorenako" in the simple future tense for the subject pronoun "Tiako."
| Hanao ianao mamaky || /hɪˈnaw iˈnɑʊ mɑˈmɑki/ || You will read


<h2>Expressions of Time</h2>
|-


To indicate when an action will take place in the future, you can use expressions of time. The table below shows some of the most commonly used expressions of time in Southern Betsimisaraka Malagasy:
| Hanao izy mankany || /hɪˈnaw iˈzi mɑnˈkɑnɪ/ || He will go


{| class="wikitable"
!Southern Betsimisaraka Malagasy !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
|-
| Androany alina || [andruˈɑn(j) əˈlin(ə)] || Tonight
 
| Hanao isika manao || /hɪˈnaw iˈsikɑ mɑˈnɑu/ || We will do
 
|-
|-
| Amanôsa || [ˌəməˈnuːs(ə)] || Tomorrow
 
|-
| Hanao izy ireo mivory || /hɪˈnaw iˈzi iˈrɛʊ mɪˈvɔrɪ/ || They will meet
| Fasana || [fəˈsɑn(ə)] || Next week
 
|-
| Alina indray || [əˈlin(ə) ˈindraj] || Tomorrow again
|-
| Efa ela no ho avy || [ˈef(ə) ˌel(ə) nʷ ˌhu ˈav(ə)] || Soon
|}
|}


You can use these expressions before the verb to indicate when the action will take place in the future. For example, to say "I will go to the market tomorrow," you would use the expression "Amanôsa" before the verb "mandeha": "Amanôsa handehako eto am-pamoretana."
As you can see from the examples above, the subject can change, but the pattern remains consistent. The addition of "h" before the verb root signifies that the action will take place in the future.
 
=== Important Notes on Usage ===
 
* '''Negative Form''': To express negation in the simple future tense, you add "tsy" before the verb. For example:
 
* '''Hanao aho tsy mihinana.''' (I will not eat.)
 
* '''Question Form''': To form a question, you can simply raise your intonation at the end of the sentence or add "ve" at the end. For example:
 
* '''Hanao ve ianao mividy?''' (Will you buy?)

This expression shows that you are committed to the future action, but you are also acknowledging the possibility that something may prevent you from attending.

Understanding the Simple Future Tense[edit | edit source]

The simple future tense is used to describe actions that will happen after the present moment. It allows you to express your thoughts about future events, plans, or predictions. In Southern Betsimisaraka Malagasy, the future tense is typically formed by using the verb "hanao," which means "to do" or "to make," along with the root of the verb you want to use.

Here’s a basic structure:

  • Subject + h + verb root + ending

In this structure:

  • The subject tells us who is doing the action.
  • "h" indicates that the action is in the future.
  • The verb root is the action you want to perform.
  • The ending can change based on the subject.

Structure of Simple Future Tense[edit | edit source]

Let’s break down how to form the simple future tense in Southern Betsimisaraka Malagasy:

1. Choose the subject: This can be a pronoun like "I" (aho), "you" (ianao), "he" (izy), etc.

2. Use "h": This prefix indicates the future tense.

3. Add the verb root: This is the main action word in its base form.

4. Add the appropriate ending: Depending on the subject, the ending may vary.

Examples of Simple Future Tense[edit | edit source]

To illustrate the simple future tense, let's look at some examples:

Hanao izy milalao /hɪˈnaw iˈzi miˈlɑlɑu/ He will play
Hanao isika mihinana /hɪˈnaw iˈsikɑ miˈhinaˈnɑ/ We will eat

Hanao isika manao /hɪˈnaw iˈsikɑ mɑˈnɑu/ We will do
Hanao izy ireo mivory /hɪˈnaw iˈzi iˈrɛʊ mɪˈvɔrɪ/ They will meet

As you can see from the examples above, the subject can change, but the pattern remains consistent. The addition of "h" before the verb root signifies that the action will take place in the future.

Important Notes on Usage[edit | edit source]
