Hindi Grammar - Future Tense

Hi Hindi learners! 😊
In this lesson, we will learn about the future tense in Hindi. We will look at how to form sentences in the future tense and how to use them in everyday conversations.

The future tense is used to talk about events that will happen in the future. In Hindi, the future tense is formed by adding the suffix ने (ne) to the verb stem. For example, the verb stem of the verb खाना (khana, to eat) is खा (kha). To form the future tense, we add the suffix ने (ne) to the verb stem, giving us खाने (khanne, will eat).

Let's look at some examples:

Hindi	Pronunciation	English Translation
मैं खाने वाला हूँ	maĩ khanne vālã hũ	I will eat
तू पढ़ने वाला है	tū padhne vālã hai	You will read
वह गाने वाला है	vah gāne vālã hai	He/She will sing
हम जाने वाले हैं	ham jāne vāle haĩ	We will go
आप सोने वाले होंगे	āp sonne vāle honge	You (plural) will sleep

We can also use the future tense to talk about events that will happen in the near future. For example, if you are going to the store tomorrow, you can say:

मैं कल दुकान पर जाने वाला हूँ (maĩ kal dukān par jāne vālã hũ, I will go to the store tomorrow).

We can also use the future tense to make predictions about the future. For example, if you think it will rain tomorrow, you can say:

मुझे लगता है कि कल बारिश होगी (mujhe lagtā hai ki kal bāriś hogī, I think it will rain tomorrow).

The future tense can also be used to express wishes or desires. For example, if you want to go to the beach, you can say:

मुझे समुद्र तट पर जाना है (mujhe samudr taṭ par jānā hai, I want to go to the beach).

Now that you know how to form sentences in the future tense, let's practice using them in everyday conversations.
