📚 Etymology
Comes from the vulgar Latin *incontrāre*, which is built from the prefix 'in-' (meaning 'in' or 'on') and the root *contra* (meaning 'against' or 'opposite'). The original sense was 'to come face to face with' or 'to run up against.'

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is 'encontraremos' regular, but the present tense ('encuentro') is irregular?
Spanish future tense is very helpful! It forms its conjugations by adding endings to the entire infinitive ('encontrar'), meaning the tricky vowel change (o to ue) that happens in the present tense is completely ignored in the future. The future tense of 'encontrar' is considered regular.
Does 'encontraremos' always mean a definite plan?
Not always. While it usually means a definite future plan ('We will find X'), the Spanish future tense can also be used to express probability or conjecture about the present ('I wonder where they are?'). For example, '¿Dónde estarán? Encontraremos a los niños en el parque' (We probably will find the kids at the park).
