💡 Grammar Points
The 'Future' Action
This form, 'dejarán', tells you that a group of people ('ellos', 'ellas', or 'ustedes') will perform the action of leaving or allowing sometime later.
Regular Verb Pattern
Since 'dejar' is a regular verb, you form the future tense by adding the future endings directly to the infinitive form ('dejar')—no tricky stem changes here!
❌ Common Pitfalls
Confusing Past and Future
Mistake: "Using 'dejaron' (they left, past tense) when you mean 'dejarán' (they will leave, future tense)."
Correction: 'Dejarán' has the accent on the last syllable, which is the key sound for the future tense.
⭐ Usage Tips
Using 'Dejar' with Things
When 'dejar' means 'to leave something behind,' it's often followed by the thing being left: 'Dejarán un regalo' (They will leave a gift).

💡 Grammar Points
Letting Someone Do Something
When 'dejar' means 'to let' or 'allow,' it is usually followed by another verb in its basic form (the infinitive), like 'dejarán entrar' (they will let enter).
⭐ Usage Tips
No Need for 'A'
Unlike some verbs, when 'dejar' means 'to allow' and is followed by a person, you don't need the preposition 'a' before the next verb: 'Dejarán (a) los estudiantes usar el libro.'
