Just like in English, the conjugated part is \"ir\" (go), so it's important to learn its conjugations.<\/p>\n Here's a table with the present tense conjugations of \"ir\". Notice how we can omit the pronoun when at the beginning of sentences.<\/p>\n (I\u2019m going to study)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n (Are you going to come?)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n (He\u2019s going to run)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n (We are going to go out)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n (You\u2019re going to see)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n (They\u2019re going to know soon)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n Are you ready to learn more Spanish future tenses?<\/p>\n The Future Perfect tense, also known as Futuro Compuesto or Futuro Perfecto in Spanish, has two main uses:<\/p>\n The Future Perfect tense is formed by combining the auxiliary verb \"haber\" in the future tense with the past participle of the main verb. It is called \"compound\" because it has two parts.<\/p>\n Once again, it is the first element, \"haber\" is the one that needs to be conjugated, and the past participle remains the same for all subjects.<\/p>\n Here is a table with the conjugation of \"haber\" in the Future Perfect tense:<\/p>\nThe Simple Future (El futuro simple)<\/h2>\n
