The future tense is used to express a future action, existence, state, situation, etc.
When the predicate is a verb, the verb is of the same form as a present tense verb when expressing a habit or a general fact.
When the predicate is an i-adjective, a na-adjective, or a noun, the predicate of the future tense sentence changes from the predicate of the present tense sentence.
This page explains the future tense of an affirmative sentence, a negative sentence and a question sentence, divided into cases where the predicate is a verb, i-adjective, na-adjective or noun.
Future Tense Format of Affirmative Sentence
In the future tense of a affirmative sentence, the predicate changes differently when the predicate is a verb and when the predicate is a word other than a verb.
When the predicate is a verb, that verb takes the same form as a present tense verb used when expressing a habit or a general fact, in the form “ใใใพใ”.
When the predicate is an i-adjective, a na-adjective or a noun, the predicate of the future tense sentence changes from the predicate of the present tense sentence, changing from “ใใใงใ” to “ใใใงใใใ”.
The changes are the same when the predicate is an i-adjective, na-adjective or noun.
To make it clear that something is going to happen in the future, the future tense sentence often include words that indicate the future, such as tomorrow “ๆๆฅ“, next week “ๆฅ้ฑ” or next month “ๆฅๆ“.
