Gustar (to please) · Future
By TutorLily Editorial Team · Last updated
Gustar in the Spanish future (futuro simple) is: yo gustaré, tú gustarás, él/ella/usted gustará, nosotros/as gustaremos, vosotros/as gustaréis, ellos/ellas/ustedes gustarán. The future of gustar describes a liking that will happen later — 'te gustará la película' = 'you'll like the movie'. Gustar uses a regular future stem (gustar- + future endings). In real use, gustará and gustarán dominate.

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.
