Future Tense in Arabic

Rules

Hi everyone,

In this lesson, you will learn how to use the Future Tense in Arabic.

It's so easy to convert the sentence into Future Tense (simple Future).

In Arabic we have only 3 tenses: Past - Present - Future. (Perfect and progressive cases are not found in Arabic)


We form Future from the present tense المضارع.

You can form the Future tense by adding the letter س to the beginning of present tense verb. س should be attached to the verb.


  • Present tense: يدرس الطلاب (The students study)
  • Future Tense: سيدرس الطلاب (The students will study)


There is another way for forming the future tense, which is similar to the above one, but the difference is you need to use the article سوف.

It should be noted that the article سوف shall be separated and NOT attached to the verb and should come before the verb directly.


  • Present tense: يدرس الطلاب (The students study)
  • Future Tense: سوف يدرس الطلاب (The students will study)


The main difference between both articles is that س is used to refer to the near future, while سوف refers to the far future.


For example

  • I will study my lessons. أنا سأذاكر دروسي

It means I will study my lessons after a short time after talking.


  • أنا سوف أذاكر دروسي

It means I will study my lessons but not now, may be tomorrow or any other time.
