EL FUTURO

Como tal, no existe un tiempo especfico de futuro en ingls, peroexisten distintos verbos y expresiones para referirnos a l.Una forma habitual de futuro en ingls tiene la siguiente estructura:

Sujeto + will + verbo

I will play / Yo jugar

Como vemos, sta forma de futuro en ingls es bastante simple. De hecho, sueledenominarse FUTURO SIMPLE (Future Simple)

Podemos encontrarnos con otra forma auxiliar, vlida tambin para expresar elfuturo, que es ' shall '. En este caso, 'shall' sirve como auxiliar para la primerapersona del singular y plural emplendose ' will ' para todas las dems. Tanto'shall' como 'will' pueden contraerse en sus formas afirmativa y negativa ( You will

You'll ).

'Shall' es menos utilizado, especialmente en Estados Unidos. En ingls moderno se

tiende a usar 'will' para todas las personas.
