💡 Grammar Points

Future Tense Rule

The simple future tense (like 'irás') is used to talk about actions that will happen sometime after now. It often expresses certainty or strong possibility.

The 'Tú' Form

'Irás' is only used when talking directly to one person you know well or are familiar with (the 'tú' form).

❌ Common Pitfalls

Future vs. Immediate Future

Mistake: "¿Tú vas a la fiesta mañana?"

Correction: The correct way to express this future plan is either '¿Irás a la fiesta mañana?' (Simple Future) or '¿Vas a ir a la fiesta mañana?' (Periphrastic Future). Using 'vas' alone usually means 'Are you going right now?'

⭐ Usage Tips

Irregular but Simple

Even though 'ir' is highly irregular, its future tense ('iré, irás, irá...') is one of the easiest to remember because the stem is just the infinitive 'ir' plus the standard future endings.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between 'irás' and 'vas a ir'?

Both mean 'you will go.' 'Irás' (Simple Future) is slightly more formal or suitable for longer-term predictions. 'Vas a ir' (Periphrastic Future, literally 'you are going to go') is much more common in everyday, casual Spanish for near-future plans.

When should I use 'irás' instead of 'irá'?

Use 'irás' when you are addressing one person informally (tú). Use 'irá' when you are talking about a third person (he/she) or when addressing one person formally (usted).
