Don't worry, we will explain everything step-by-step with plenty of examples to make it easy for you to understand. But before we dive in, let's first learn some interesting facts about the Turkmen language and culture.


To form the future tense, add the suffix -er to the verb stem. For example, the future tense of ýazmak (to write) is ýazer.  
== Fun Facts about Turkmen ==
- Turkmen is a Turkic language spoken mainly in Turkmenistan, although it is also spoken in Iran, Afghanistan, and Turkey.

The future tense can be used to express a variety of meanings, including:
Now that we've learned a bit about Turkmenistan and the Turkmen language, let's move to the grammar lesson.


* Making predictions or assumptions about the future  
== Future Tense Markers ==
* Expressing intentions or plans
To form the future tense in Turkmen, we add the future tense markers to the end of the verb stem. The future tense markers are -ar, -er, and -yar. The choice of marker depends on the last vowel in the verb stem. If the last vowel is a or e, we use -ar or -er respectively. If the last vowel is i, u, ö, or ü, we use -yar. Let's look at some examples to make it clear:
* Expressing willingness or ability


Here are some examples of the future tense in action:  
{| class="wikitable"
! Turkmen !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
| syr-a-nmak || sYränmak || to sleep (formal)
|-
| ýaz-ar || yazär || to write
|-
| dyn-yar-yp çykmak || dyn'yaryp chykmak || to go out smiling
|-
| süý-üp-bar || süýüpbar || to carry
|}
 
== Conjugation of Verbs in Future Tense ==
To conjugate verbs in the future tense, we take the verb stem and add the appropriate future tense marker. Let's again illustrate this with some examples:


{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
! Turkmen !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
|-
! Turkmen !! Pronunciation !! English Translation
| Men syr-a-rýn || Men sYrärýn || I will sleep (formal)
|-
|-
| Men ýazerin. || mehn yah-zeh-reen || I will write.
| Sen ýaz-a-caksan || Sen yazacaksan || You will write
|-
|-
| Ol ýazarmy? || ohl yah-zahr-mee || Will he write?
| Ol dyn-yar-yp çyk-a-r || Ol dyn'yaryp chykär || He/she will go out smiling
|-
|-
| Men ýazarym. || mehn yah-zah-reem || I will write.
| Biz süý-üp-ba-rýs || Biz süýüpbarýs || We will carry
|-
|-
| Ol ýazarmyka? || ohl yah-zahr-mee-kah || Will he write?
| Siz ädim-cik yglap ýaz-a-rsyz || Siz ädimcik yglap yazarsyz || You will write without skipping any lines
|}
 
Note that in Turkmen, the pronoun is usually dropped, as the verb ending already indicates the subject of the sentence.
 
== Examples in Dialogue ==
Let's see some examples of the future tense in dialogue:
 
* Person 1: Yarýar saýtla alnyp gap öýdýärin. (I will buy a new computer tomorrow.)
* Person 2: Gut! Kömek etmek isleýän boýunyzy çekýärin. (Great! I will be available to help.)
 
* Person 1: Maňa almak üçin, erbet getýärin. (If you come late to pick me up, it will be bad for me.)
* Person 2: Habar berdim. Iki minut öňä gelýärin. (Noted. I will be there two minutes early.)
 
== Practice Exercise ==
Conjugate the verb özlemek (to miss) in the future tense for the following pronouns: Sen, Ol, Biz, Siz.
 
{| class="wikitable"
! Pronoun !! Turkmen Future Tense
|-
| Sen || özle-äcsen
|-
|-
| Men ýazaryn. || mehn yah-zah-reen || I will write.
| Ol || özle-är
|-
| Biz || özle-äris
|-
| Siz || özle-caksyz
|}
|}


It's important to note that the future tense is not used to express habitual actions. For example, if you want to say "I write every day", you would use the present tense, not the future tense.  
== Conclusion ==
