Whether you’re planning to visit Morocco, discussing your dreams, or just sharing your future plans with friends, mastering the future tense will enhance your ability to express yourself.

In this lesson, we'll explore the structure of the future tense, learn how to form it, and see numerous examples to solidify your understanding. We’ll also have some exercises to help you practice what you've learned, ensuring that you can confidently use the future tense in your conversations.

Importance of the Future Tense in Moroccan Arabic[edit | edit source]

The future tense is crucial in Moroccan Arabic as it allows speakers to discuss intentions, predictions, and plans. Just like in English, being able to express what will happen is a key part of daily communication. It helps you connect with others more deeply as you share your aspirations or make arrangements.

Structure of the Future Tense[edit | edit source]

In Moroccan Arabic, the future tense is typically formed using the particle غادي (ghadi) followed by the verb in its base form. This structure is straightforward and commonly used in everyday speech.

Basic Structure[edit | edit source]

The basic structure can be summarized as follows:

غادي + [verb]

For example:

غادي نكتب (ghadi nktb) - "I will write."

Examples of Future Tense[edit | edit source]

Let's dive into some examples to illustrate how this works:

Moroccan Arabic	Pronunciation	English
غادي نأكل	ghadi naakl	"I will eat"
غادي نشرب	ghadi nshrib	"I will drink"
غادي نخرج	ghadi nkhrij	"I will go out"
غادي نقرأ	ghadi nqra	"I will read"
غادي نلعب	ghadi nlʿab	"I will play"
غادي نشتغل	ghadi nʃtghl	"I will work"
غادي نزور	ghadi nzur	"I will visit"
غادي ندرس	ghadi ndrs	"I will study"
غادي نسافر	ghadi nsafr	"I will travel"
غادي نساعد	ghadi nsaʿid	"I will help"

As you can see, the structure remains the same regardless of the subject. The key is to remember the verb form, which does not change in the future tense.

Subject Pronouns[edit | edit source]

Now, let’s take a closer look at how the subject pronouns can be integrated into this structure. The particle غادي remains the same, but the verb changes according to the subject.

Here's a brief overview of the subject pronouns in Moroccan Arabic:

أنا (ana) - I

أنتَ (anta) - You (masculine)

أنتِ (anti) - You (feminine)

هو (huwa) - He

هي (hiya) - She

نحن (naḥnu) - We

أنتم (antum) - You (plural)

هم (hum) - They

Let’s see how these pronouns work in the future tense:

Subject Pronoun	Moroccan Arabic	Pronunciation	English
أنا	غادي نكتب	ghadi nktb	"I will write"
أنتَ	غادي تكتب	ghadi tktb	"You (masculine) will write"
أنتِ	غادي تكتبي	ghadi tktbi	"You (feminine) will write"
هو	غادي يكتب	ghadi yktb	"He will write"
هي	غادي تكتب	ghadi tktb	"She will write"
نحن	غادي نكتبو	ghadi nktbu	"We will write"
أنتم	غادي تكتبو	ghadi tktbu	"You (plural) will write"
هم	غادي يكتبو	ghadi yktbu	"They will write"

This table highlights how the verbs change slightly based on the subject, while the غادي remains constant.

Common Verbs in Future Tense[edit | edit source]

Here’s a list of common verbs you'll often use in the future tense along with their meanings:

كَتَبَ (kataba) - to write

أَكَلَ (akala) - to eat

شَرِبَ (shariba) - to drink

خَرَجَ (kharaja) - to go out

نَامَ (naama) - to sleep
