Forgetting the Irregularity

The verb 'decir' (to say/tell) is very irregular in the future tense. Instead of using the full verb 'decir' plus the ending, it shortens and changes its stem to 'dir-'. This form, 'dirás,' means 'you will say/tell.'

Irregular Future Stem

Sometimes the future tense is used not for future time, but to guess or wonder about the present. For example, '¿Qué dirás que cuesta?' means 'How much do you suppose it costs?'

Future Tense for Probability

Remember the pattern: decir -> diré/dirás/dirá. If you know the stem 'dir-', you can easily conjugate all six future forms.
