What about talking about something that has yet to take place? Do you use the futur simple or can you use the verb ‘aller’ for everything?<\/p>\n
The future proche is made with the verb ‘aller’, followed by the infinitive (the whole verb).
You use the futur proche for:<\/p>\n
Something that will happen in the near future, without a time limit.
He’s taking the subway. (meaning that he is about to do it)
> Il va prendre le m\u00e9tro.<\/p>\n
Something that will happen soon or in the more distant future with a time setting.
He will arrive in fifteen minutes.
> Il va arriver dans un quart d’heure.<\/p>\n
He will retire in 30 years.
> Il va prendre sa retreat dance 30 ans.<\/p>\n
Something that started in the present and will continue.
Hurry; it begins.
> D\u00e9p\u00eachte-toi, \u00e7a va commencer.<\/p>\n
You make the futur simple as follows. Step 1: take the whole verb. Step 2: add the following endings after the verb: -ai, -as, -a, -ons, -ez, -ont.
So at commencer: je commencerai, tu commenceras, il commencera, nous commencerons, vous commencerez, ils commenceront.<\/p>\n
For verbs ending in ‘e’, the ‘e’ is dropped: r\u00e9duire > nous r\u00e9duirons.
For irregular verbs, do not use the infinitive, but a specific form that is best memorized. The exits are the same.<\/p>\n
For future events. Usually you also hear in Dutch that you want to use the verb ‘will’.
He will leave at 9am.
> Il partira \u00e0 9 hours.<\/p>\n
Il will wait for you at the fountain.
> Je t’attendrai pr\u00e8s de la fontaine.<\/p>\n
For two simultaneous actions in the future.
You will speak French when you are in France.
> Tu parleras fran\u00e7ais quand tu seras en France.<\/p>\n
For a future action that takes place after the future main action.
Tonight I’ll tell you why I’m going to work in Paris.
> Ce soir je t’expliquerai pourquoi je vais travailler \u00e0 Paris.<\/p>\n
In written language, where you would more likely use the futur proche in spoken language:
I will not come.
> Je ne viendrai pas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
