Telling the Future

The form 'dará' is the third person singular of the Simple Future tense. It is used to express actions that will definitely happen later.

Irregularity of 'Dar'

While the Future tense ('daré', 'dará') follows the regular pattern for -ar verbs, the present tense ('doy') and the past tenses are irregular, so watch out for those!

Question 1 of 1

Which sentence uses 'dará' in the sense of 'to cause or produce'?

Frequently Asked Questions

Is 'dará' related to 'para' (for)?

No, they come from entirely different Latin roots. 'Dará' (will give) comes from *dare*. 'Para' (for/in order to) comes from *pro* (for) and *ad* (to).

Why is 'doy' (I give) irregular, but 'dará' (he will give) looks regular?

Many verbs in Spanish have different levels of irregularity depending on the tense. 'Dar' is strongly irregular in the Present Tense ('doy') and Preterite ('di'), but its Simple Future tense ('dará') follows the standard pattern of adding endings to the infinitive 'dar'.
