Frequently Asked Questions

How is 'hablará' different from 'va a hablar'?

Both mean 'will speak.' 'Hablará' is the standard simple future. 'Va a hablar' (ir a + infinitive) is the 'immediate future' and is often used in casual speech to talk about actions happening very soon, similar to 'is going to speak' in English.

Does 'hablará' ever mean 'must be speaking'?

Yes! In Spanish, the future tense can be used to express probability or conjecture about the present. For example, '¿Quién llama? Será Juan' means 'Who is calling? It must be Juan (or, it probably is Juan).'
