Working with the future
The simple future ("haré", "tendré") competes with the more conversational "voy a + infinitive" construction in everyday Spanish — the going-to form is more common for near-term plans. The simple future shines in two cases: formal or more distant predictions, and conjecture about the present ("¿qué hora será?" = "what time could it be?"). About 12 high-frequency verbs use contracted future stems (har-, dir-, tendr-, pondr-, vendr-, saldr-, podr-, querr-, sabr-, habr-, valdr-, cabr-); the rest just append future endings to the full infinitive.
