📚 Etymology▼
The verb 'decir' comes directly from the Latin verb *dīcere*, meaning 'to say,' 'to speak,' or 'to declare.' The irregular stem 'dir-' used in the future tense is a remnant of how the verb evolved over time in Spanish.
First recorded: Old Spanish (dating back to the 10th-12th centuries)

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does 'diremos' look so different from the infinitive 'decir'?
'Decir' is one of the most common but also most irregular verbs in Spanish! In the future tense, it completely changes its stem from 'decir-' to 'dir-'. You just have to memorize that 'diré, dirás, dirá, diremos...' are the future forms.
Is 'diremos' used for both 'say' and 'tell'?
Yes, absolutely. 'Decir' covers both English meanings. For example, 'Diremos un secreto' (We will tell a secret) and 'Diremos adiós' (We will say goodbye) are both correct.
