Future Tense Verbs
• The future tense refers to something that will
or is going to happen at a future time.
• In English, we use the helping verbs “will” or
“shall” to express future tense.
• Latin uses prefixes on the present tense verb
endings to make future tense verb endings,
like this…

Future Tense

• -bor
• -bimur
• I will be verbed
• we will be verbed
• -beris
• -bimini
• you will be verbed
• y’all will be verbed
• -bitur
• -buntur

Let’s practice translating future tense
verbs!
1. amabo 2. spectabit 3. portabunt
4. parabitis
5. spectabis
6. parabo 7. laborabit 8. laborabimus
Singular
Plural
1st -BO (I will...) -BIMUS (we will…)
2nd -BIS (you will...) -BITIS (y’all will…)
3rd -BIT (he/she/it will…) -BUNT (they will…)
Making FUTURE Tense
FUTURE TENSE for these verbs (3rd, 3rd –io, and 4th)
looks very similar to their PRESENT TENSE.
The only difference is the vowels you use before the
personal endings.
Do NOT use the bo, bis, bit endings like we do for 1st
and 2nd conjugations!
Future Tense (“will….”)
ponam
pones
ponet
ponemus
ponetis
ponent
capiam
capies
capiet
capiemus
capietis
capient
audiam
audies
audiet
audiemus
audietis
audient
3rd –io has an
‘i’ in every
form!
4th already has
‘i’ in its stem!

So…what does it mean???
• Cibum in carrum ponimus.
• We place the food into the cart.
• Cibum in carrum ponemus.
• We will place the food into the cart.
• You know ponemus is future because you know
that pono, ponere is 3rd conjugation and 3rd
conjugation verbs use “E” in their future tense
endings.
Every “E” Is Not Future Tense
• 2nd conjugation verbs have “e” that occurs naturally in
their PRESENT tense.
• 2nd conjugation verbs: -eo, -ere
• doceo, docere: teach
•
•
•
•
Present Tense
doceo docemus
doces docetis
docet docent
Future Tense
docebo
docebimus
docebis
docebitis
docebit
docebunt
Things To Take Away With You!
• If a verb ends in bo, bis, bit, bimus, bitis, bunt, it’s
DEFINITELY future tense.
• If a verb ends in –am it’s DEFINITELY future tense (1st
person, “I will…”)
• If a verb ends in –es, -et, -emus, -etis, -ent it’s either
PRESENT or FUTURE. Check its conjugation to see:
• 2nd conjugation: PRESENT
• 3rd/4th conjugation: FUTURE
• If a verb ending has a combination of –ie-, it’s always
future tense (unless it has a –ba- there!)
Future Tense
---passive voice 3rd/4th conjugation
