<h2>Introduction</h2>
== Introduction ==


In Welsh, there are several ways to talk about the future. In this lesson, you will learn how to use future verb forms and time expressions to discuss future events. Understanding how to talk about the future will help you express plans, hopes, and dreams for upcoming events.  
In this lesson, we will explore different ways to talk about the future in Welsh. Being able to discuss future events is an essential skill in any language, as it allows us to make plans, express intentions, and talk about upcoming events. In Welsh, there are various verb forms and time expressions that we can use to convey the idea of the future. By the end of this lesson, you will have a solid understanding of how to talk about the future in Welsh and will be able to use this knowledge in real-life situations.


<h2>Future Tense Verb Forms</h2>
== Present Continuous Tense ==


<h3>The Simple Future</h3>
Before we delve into discussing the future, it's important to revisit the present continuous tense in Welsh. The present continuous tense is used to talk about actions happening right now or in the near future. In Welsh, the present continuous tense is formed by combining the present tense of the verb "bod" (to be) with the present participle of the main verb. The present participle is created by adding "-yn" to the base form of the verb.


The simple future tense in Welsh is formed by using the verb "bydd" (will) followed by the infinitive form of the main verb. For example:
Let's look at some examples:


{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
! Welsh !! Pronunciation !! English
! Welsh !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
|-
| Byddaf i'n mynd  || BUH-dav ee'n MUND || I will go
| Dw i'n darllen. || Doo ee'n darl-len || I am reading.
|-
| Rydych chi'n ysgrifennu. || Ruh-dikh khi'n uhs-grih-ven-ee || You are writing.
|-
| Mae e'n chwarae. || My ay'n hwa-rye || He is playing.
|-
| Rydyn ni'n gweithio. || Rud-in nee'n gwey-thyo || We are working.
|-
| Maen nhw'n canu. || Main thu'n ka-nee || They are singing.
|}
 
As you can see, the present continuous tense in Welsh is formed by adding the appropriate form of "bod" before the present participle of the main verb. It's important to note that the present continuous tense in Welsh is not only used to talk about actions happening right now, but also for future events that have been planned or arranged.
 
== Talking About the Future ==
 
Now that we have reviewed the present continuous tense, let's move on to discussing different ways to talk about the future in Welsh. In addition to using the present continuous tense, there are other verb forms and time expressions that we can use to convey the idea of the future. Let's explore each of them in detail.
 
=== Using the Future Tense ===
 
One way to talk about the future in Welsh is by using the future tense. In Welsh, the future tense is formed by adding the appropriate form of the verb "bydd" (to be) before the infinitive form of the main verb. The future tense can be used to express intentions, predictions, and plans for the future.
 
Here are some examples:
 
{| class="wikitable"
! Welsh !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
|-
| Byddi di'n gwneud || BUH-di dee'n GNU-ayd  || You will do 
| Bydda i'n siopa yfory. || Buth-a ee'n shop-a u-vor-uh || I will shop tomorrow.
|-
|-
| Bydd e/ei/y'n dysgu || BITH ay / BITH ay-ee / BITH un DIS-gee  || He / She / It will learn
| Byddi di'n gweithio yn y swyddfa. || Buth-ee dee'n gwey-thyo uhn uh swid-va || You will work in the office.
|-
|-
| Byddwn ni'n canu || BUH-doon nee'n CAN-ee   || We will sing 
| Bydd e'n mynd i'r parc. || Buth ay'n mind ee'r park || He will go to the park.
|-
|-
| Byddwch chi'n eistedd  || BUH-dookh chee'n AYS-tedd || You will sit 
| Byddwn ni'n mynd ar wyliau. || Buth-oon nee'n mind ar wil-yay || We will go on vacation.
|-
|-
| Byddan nhw'n chwarae || BUH-dan noo'n HWAR-ay || They will play  
| Byddan nhw'n chwarae rygbi. || Buth-an nuh'n hwa-rye rug-bee || They will play rugby.
|}
|}


<h3>The Future Perfect Tense</h3>
As you can see, the future tense in Welsh is formed by adding the appropriate form of "bydd" before the infinitive form of the main verb. It's important to note that the future tense in Welsh can also be used to make polite requests or suggestions. For example, "Byddwch chi'n dod i'r parti?" (Will you come to the party?).


The future perfect tense in Welsh is formed by using the future tense of "cael" (to have) followed by the past participle of the main verb. For example:
=== Using the Verb "Mynd" (To Go) ===
 
Another way to talk about the future in Welsh is by using the verb "mynd" (to go). In Welsh, "mynd" can be used on its own to indicate the future or combined with other verbs to express future actions or intentions.
 
Here are some examples:


{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
! Welsh !! Pronunciation !! English

|-
|-
| Cawn ni wedi gorffen  || CAWN nee WEH-dee GOR-fen  || We will have finished
| Mi af i'r sinema wythnos nesaf. || Mee av ee'r sin-eh-ma oo-ith-nos ness-av || I am going to the cinema next week.
|-
|-
| Byddwch chi wedi blino || BUH-dookh chee WEH-dee BLEE-no  || You will have tired
| Wyt ti'n mynd i'r parti? || Oot tee'n mind ee'r par-tee || Are you going to the party?
|-
|-
| Byddan nhw wedi cysgu || BUH-dan noo WEH-dee KUSS-gee  || They will have slept
| Mae e'n mynd i siopa. || My ay'n mind ee shop-a || He is going shopping.
|-
| Rydyn ni'n mynd i'r parc. || Rud-in nee'n mind ee'r park || We are going to the park.
|-
| Maen nhw'n mynd i weld y ffilm newydd. || Main thu'n mind ee weld uh film new-ith || They are going to see the new movie.
|}
|}


<h3>The Future Continuous Tense</h3>
In these examples, "mynd" is used to indicate future actions or intentions. It is often combined with other verbs to provide more context or detail about the future event. It's important to note that "mynd" can also be used to talk about immediate future actions, similar to the present continuous tense.


The future continuous tense in Welsh is formed by using "bydd" (will) followed by "yn" and the present participle of the main verb. For example:
=== Using Time Expressions ===
 
In addition to verb forms, time expressions can also be used to talk about the future in Welsh. Time expressions provide information about when a future event will occur and can be used in combination with verb forms to create more specific statements.
 
Here are some examples:
 
* Yfory (Tomorrow)
* Wythnos nesaf (Next week)
* Mis nesaf (Next month)
* Blwyddyn nesaf (Next year)
* Yn y dyfodol (In the future)
 
Let's see how these time expressions can be used in sentences:

|-
| Bydda i'n siarad || BUH-tha ee'n SHAR-ad || I will be speaking

<h2>Time Expressions</h2>
As you can see, combining time expressions with verb forms allows us to create more specific statements about future events. Time expressions provide clarity and help us understand when the actions or events will take place.
 
== Cultural Insight ==


<h3>Tomorrow and Yesterday</h3>
In Welsh culture, planning for the future is highly valued. Welsh people are known for their strong work ethic and commitment to achieving their goals. They believe in setting clear objectives and working towards them diligently. The Welsh language reflects this cultural perspective by providing various ways to talk about the future, allowing speakers to express their intentions and plans with precision.


In Welsh, "yfory" means "tomorrow," and "ddoe" means "yesterday." For example:
Historically, the Welsh language has evolved alongside the country's rich cultural heritage. The Welsh people have a long and proud history, with a strong sense of national identity. The language has played a vital role in preserving and promoting Welsh culture, and talking about the future in Welsh is a way to connect with this cultural heritage.


* Mi fyddwn ni'n mynd i'r sinema yfory. (We will go to the cinema tomorrow.)
== Exercises ==
* Ddoe, es i i'r swyddfa. (Yesterday, I went to the office.)


<h3>Next and Last</h3>
Now it's time to put your knowledge into practice! Complete the following exercises to reinforce your understanding of talking about the future in Welsh. Solutions and explanations are provided below each exercise.


To talk about future or past events that are recurring, you can use "y nesaf" for "the next" and "yr un diwethaf" for "the last." For example:

WelshGrammar0 to A1 Course → Present Continuous and Future → Talking About the Future

Introduction[edit | edit source]

In this lesson, we will explore different ways to talk about the future in Welsh. Being able to discuss future events is an essential skill in any language, as it allows us to make plans, express intentions, and talk about upcoming events. In Welsh, there are various verb forms and time expressions that we can use to convey the idea of the future. By the end of this lesson, you will have a solid understanding of how to talk about the future in Welsh and will be able to use this knowledge in real-life situations.

Present Continuous Tense[edit | edit source]

Before we delve into discussing the future, it's important to revisit the present continuous tense in Welsh. The present continuous tense is used to talk about actions happening right now or in the near future. In Welsh, the present continuous tense is formed by combining the present tense of the verb "bod" (to be) with the present participle of the main verb. The present participle is created by adding "-yn" to the base form of the verb.

Let's look at some examples:

Welsh Pronunciation English
Dw i'n darllen. Doo ee'n darl-len I am reading.
Rydych chi'n ysgrifennu. Ruh-dikh khi'n uhs-grih-ven-ee You are writing.
Mae e'n chwarae. My ay'n hwa-rye He is playing.
Rydyn ni'n gweithio. Rud-in nee'n gwey-thyo We are working.
Maen nhw'n canu. Main thu'n ka-nee They are singing.

As you can see, the present continuous tense in Welsh is formed by adding the appropriate form of "bod" before the present participle of the main verb. It's important to note that the present continuous tense in Welsh is not only used to talk about actions happening right now, but also for future events that have been planned or arranged.

Talking About the Future[edit | edit source]

Now that we have reviewed the present continuous tense, let's move on to discussing different ways to talk about the future in Welsh. In addition to using the present continuous tense, there are other verb forms and time expressions that we can use to convey the idea of the future. Let's explore each of them in detail.

Using the Future Tense[edit | edit source]

One way to talk about the future in Welsh is by using the future tense. In Welsh, the future tense is formed by adding the appropriate form of the verb "bydd" (to be) before the infinitive form of the main verb. The future tense can be used to express intentions, predictions, and plans for the future.

Here are some examples:

Welsh Pronunciation English
Bydda i'n siopa yfory. Buth-a ee'n shop-a u-vor-uh I will shop tomorrow.
Byddi di'n gweithio yn y swyddfa. Buth-ee dee'n gwey-thyo uhn uh swid-va You will work in the office.
Bydd e'n mynd i'r parc. Buth ay'n mind ee'r park He will go to the park.
Byddwn ni'n mynd ar wyliau. Buth-oon nee'n mind ar wil-yay We will go on vacation.
Byddan nhw'n chwarae rygbi. Buth-an nuh'n hwa-rye rug-bee They will play rugby.

As you can see, the future tense in Welsh is formed by adding the appropriate form of "bydd" before the infinitive form of the main verb. It's important to note that the future tense in Welsh can also be used to make polite requests or suggestions. For example, "Byddwch chi'n dod i'r parti?" (Will you come to the party?).

Using the Verb "Mynd" (To Go)[edit | edit source]

Another way to talk about the future in Welsh is by using the verb "mynd" (to go). In Welsh, "mynd" can be used on its own to indicate the future or combined with other verbs to express future actions or intentions.

Here are some examples:

Welsh Pronunciation English
Mi af i'r sinema wythnos nesaf. Mee av ee'r sin-eh-ma oo-ith-nos ness-av I am going to the cinema next week.
Wyt ti'n mynd i'r parti? Oot tee'n mind ee'r par-tee Are you going to the party?
Mae e'n mynd i siopa. My ay'n mind ee shop-a He is going shopping.
Rydyn ni'n mynd i'r parc. Rud-in nee'n mind ee'r park We are going to the park.
Maen nhw'n mynd i weld y ffilm newydd. Main thu'n mind ee weld uh film new-ith They are going to see the new movie.

In these examples, "mynd" is used to indicate future actions or intentions. It is often combined with other verbs to provide more context or detail about the future event. It's important to note that "mynd" can also be used to talk about immediate future actions, similar to the present continuous tense.

Using Time Expressions[edit | edit source]

In addition to verb forms, time expressions can also be used to talk about the future in Welsh. Time expressions provide information about when a future event will occur and can be used in combination with verb forms to create more specific statements.

Here are some examples:

  • Yfory (Tomorrow)
  • Wythnos nesaf (Next week)
  • Mis nesaf (Next month)
  • Blwyddyn nesaf (Next year)
  • Yn y dyfodol (In the future)

Let's see how these time expressions can be used in sentences:

Welsh Pronunciation English
Bydda i'n mynd i'r swyddfa yfory. Buth-a ee'n mind ee'r swid-va u-vor-uh I will go to the office tomorrow.
Byddi di'n dod i'r parti wythnos nesaf. Buth-ee dee'n dod ee'r par-tee oo-ith-nos ness-av You will come to the party next week.
Bydd e'n prynu car mis nesaf. Buth ay'n prih-nee kar miss-ness-av He will buy a car next month.
Byddwn ni'n mynd ar wyliau blwyddyn nesaf. Buth-oon nee'n mind ar wil-yay blwid-in ness-av We will go on vacation next year.
Byddan nhw'n gweithio yn y dyfodol. Buth-an nuh'n gwey-thyo uhn uh duh-vod-ol They will work in the future.

As you can see, combining time expressions with verb forms allows us to create more specific statements about future events. Time expressions provide clarity and help us understand when the actions or events will take place.
