Let's get started!

Overview of the Future Tense[edit | edit source]

The future tense is used to talk about actions or events that will happen in the future. In Central Khmer, the future tense is formed by using specific markers or words that indicate future time. These markers are placed before the verb in the sentence to indicate that the action will take place at a later time. Understanding and using the future tense is essential for effective communication in Central Khmer.

Forming the Future Tense[edit | edit source]

In Central Khmer, the future tense is formed by using specific markers or words that indicate future time. These markers are placed before the verb in the sentence. Let's see some examples:

Regular Verbs[edit | edit source]

To form the future tense with regular verbs, we add the marker "នឹង" (nɨəŋ) before the verb. Let's look at some examples:

Central Khmer	Pronunciation	English
ខ្ញុំនឹងទិញរថយន្ត។	khnhom nɨəŋ tiŋ rotii	I will buy a car.
អ្នកនឹងទៅហាយអាល់ប៊ី។	neak nɨəŋ tiihaey aalbei	You will go to Thailand.
ជាមួយខ្ញុំនឹងទៅកាន់បង់ប្រាក់។	jaa muəi khnhom nɨəŋ tii kaan baŋ prakea	We will go to the bank together.

As you can see, the marker "នឹង" (nɨəŋ) is added before the verb to indicate future time.

Irregular Verbs[edit | edit source]

Some verbs in Central Khmer have irregular forms in the future tense. Let's look at some examples:

Central Khmer	Pronunciation	English
ខ្ញុំនឹងមើលអ្នកនៅថ្ងៃអង្គារ។	khnhom nɨəŋ mɨəl neak nɨəp tiŋ aŋkaa	I will see you tomorrow.
អ្នកនឹងអភិវឌ្ឍន៍បង់ប្រាក់ថ្ងៃរះសីហា។	neak nɨəŋ aahviiʔdiəny baŋ prakea tiŋ reh sihaa	You will receive the salary on Sunday.
ជាមួយខ្ញុំនឹងទទួលបានសំណាក់ថ្មី។	jaa muəi khnhom nɨəŋ tɔɔtlaap baan somnak tiŋ	We will get a new job together.

As you can see, some irregular verbs have unique forms in the future tense.

Using the Future Tense[edit | edit source]

Now that we know how to form the future tense, let's explore how to use it in different contexts.

Talking about Future Actions[edit | edit source]

The future tense is used to talk about actions or events that will happen in the future. Let's see some examples:

នាមជារៀននៅថ្ងៃសុក្រ ។ (Niəm jaa riən nɨəp tiŋ sok) - I will study on Saturday.
ខ្ញុំនឹងទទួលបានយកសំណាក់ថ្មី។ (Khnhom nɨəŋ tɔɔtlaap baan jək somnak tiŋ) - I will get a new job.

Making Future Plans[edit | edit source]

The future tense is also used to make future plans. Let's see some examples:

ហៅមួយលេងក្លោងមួយនៅអាស៊ី។ (Haw muəi leəng kloəng muəi nɨəp aasi) - Let's play football in Asia.
ខ្ញុំនឹងទៅហាយអាល់ប៊ីក្នុងខេត្តសៀមរាប។ (Khnhom nɨəŋ tiihaey aalbei knəŋ kheətiə siəmreəp) - I will go to Thailand next week.

Expressing Future Possibilities[edit | edit source]

The future tense can also be used to express future possibilities. Let's see some examples:

អ្នកនឹងទទួលបានអារម្មណ៍មួយថ្ងៃ។ (Neak nɨəŋ tɔɔtlaap baan aarɑmɑn muəi tiŋ) - You will receive an invitation in one day.
ខ្ញុំនឹងបានការងារថ្មីនៅក្នុងខេត្តភ្នំពេញ។ (Khnhom nɨəŋ baan kaahnɑh tumtiəp nɨəp knəŋ kheətiə phnompenh) - I will have a new job in Phnom Penh.

Cultural Insight: Future Plans in Central Khmer Culture[edit | edit source]

In Central Khmer culture, making future plans is an important aspect of social interaction. It is common for people to make plans for social events, such as weddings, festivals, and gatherings. The future tense is often used to express these plans and intentions. For example, when inviting someone to an event, it is common to use the future tense to indicate the date and time of the event. Additionally, the future tense is used to make promises or commitments for future actions. This cultural emphasis on future plans reflects the value placed on social connections and community in Central Khmer culture.
