Future Tense

Verbs in the future tense with the perfective aspect denote certain actions in future. This tense has no fully corresponding tense in English. It can be translated into English with the simple future tense. It is formed by combining a present verb form in the subjunctive mood (see Subjunctive Mood) with the particle بٌه .

Regular simple verbs, irregular simple verbs, completely joint verbs with suffixes, and the verb "to do" - کول produce their future perfective forms in the following way:

particle بٌه + prefix [wu-] وُ- + present form of verb

For example, "We will read a book." - مُوږ بٌه کِتاب وُلْوَلُو.

If the particle بٌه is used inside a verb, it is inserted between the prefix [wu-] وُ- and the rest of the verb:

"We will read" - وُبٌه لْوَلُو
