Hi Assamese learners! 😊
In this lesson, we will learn about the future tense in Assamese. We will look at how to form sentences in the future tense and how to use them in everyday conversations.
Forming Sentences in the Future Tense
The future tense in Assamese is formed by adding the suffix -বো to the verb stem. For example, the verb stem of খাও (to eat) is খা- and the future tense of this verb is খাবো (I will eat).
Examples
| Assamese | Pronunciation | English Translation |
|---|---|---|
| আমি গাওবো | ɑːmi ɡɑːobɔ | I will sing |
| তুমি কথা বলবো | tumi kɔθɑː bɔlbɔ | You will speak |
| তারা গান গাইবো | tɑːrɑː ɡɑːn ɡɑːibɔ | They will sing a song |
| আমি পাখি দেখবো | ɑːmi pɑːkhi dekhbɔ | I will see a bird |
| তুমি গান শুনবো | tumi ɡɑːn ʃunbɔ | You will listen to a song |
Using the Future Tense in Everyday Conversations
The future tense is used to talk about things that will happen in the future. It can also be used to make predictions or to express intentions.
For example:
- আমি আগামীকাল আসবো (ɑːmi ɑːɡɑːmiːkɑːl ɑːsbɔ) - I will come tomorrow.
- তুমি আগামীকাল কি করবো? (tumi ɑːɡɑːmiːkɑːl ki kɔrbɔ?) - What will you do tomorrow?
- আমি আগামীকাল গান গাইবো (ɑːmi ɑːɡɑːmiːkɑːl ɡɑːn ɡɑːibɔ) - I will sing a song tomorrow.
