Language/Romanian/Grammar/Future-Tense
Hi Romanian learners! 😊
In this lesson, we will learn about the future tense in Romanian. We will look at how to form the future tense, as well as some examples of how it is used.
Forming the Future Tense
The future tense in Romanian is formed by adding the appropriate ending to the verb stem. The endings are as follows:
| Person | Ending |
|---|---|
| I | - voi |
| You (singular) | - vei |
| He/She/It | - va |
| We | - vom |
| You (plural) | - veţi |
| They | - vor |
For example, the verb "a merge" (to go) has the following future forms:
| Person | Form |
|---|---|
| I | voi merge |
| You (singular) | vei merge |
| He/She/It | va merge |
| We | vom merge |
| You (plural) | veţi merge |
| They | vor merge |
Note that the verb stem is the same for all persons.
Examples
Here are some examples of how the future tense is used in Romanian:
| Romanian | Pronunciation | English Translation |
