Frequently Asked Questions

Is 'mostraré' the same as 'voy a mostrar'?

They both mean 'I will show,' but 'mostraré' (simple future) is used for planned actions, promises, or predictions. 'Voy a mostrar' (periphrastic future) is more common in daily speech and emphasizes the immediate future or a strong intention.

Why does the verb 'mostrar' change its spelling in the present but not in 'mostraré'?

The spelling change (o to ue, like in 'muestro') only happens in the present tense to help with the flow of sound. When conjugating the future tense ('mostraré'), you keep the original spelling of the infinitive, making it easy and regular!
