Frequently Asked Questions

What is the base form of escribiré?

The base form (infinitive) is 'escribir', which means 'to write'.

Does escribiré require a pronoun like 'yo'?

No, the ending '-é' already tells the listener that you are the one doing the writing, so you don't need to say 'yo' unless you want to emphasize it.
