In German, the future tense (Futur I) is created by combining the conjugated form of the verb werden with the infinitive of the main verb at the end of the sentence.
For example:
- Ich werde gehen. (I will go.)
- Du wirst kommen. (You will come.)
- Er/Sie/Es wird spielen. (He/She/It will play.)
The future tense can also be used to make predictions or assumptions about the present or future.
Try forming the future tense by conjugating werden and adding the infinitive of the verb you want to use!
