Frequently Asked Questions
Is 'buscaré' the same as 'voy a buscar'?
They both mean 'I will look for,' but 'voy a buscar' (I am going to look for) is often used for near-future plans and sounds more conversational. 'Buscaré' is the simple future and works for any future time, and is often used in writing or more formal speech.
Does 'buscar' require a preposition like 'for' in English?
No. In Spanish, 'buscar' already includes the idea of 'for.' You simply say 'Buscaré el perro' (I will look for the dog). Do not add 'por' or 'para' after 'buscar' when stating what you are looking for.
