💡 Grammar Points
Future Tense Formation
To form the simple future tense, you take the entire base verb (mostrar) and add the ending for 'I' (-é). This is one of the easiest tenses because you don't remove the -ar, -er, or -ir ending first.
When to use 'Mostraré'
Use this word when you are certain or highly confident that you will perform the action of showing or demonstrating something at a later time.
❌ Common Pitfalls
Confusing Present and Future Stems
Mistake: "Using 'muestraré' instead of 'mostraré'."
Correction: The verb `mostrar` only changes its spelling (o > ue) in the present tense (e.g., 'muestro'). In the future tense, it keeps the original 'o' and is spelled regularly: 'mostraré'.
⭐ Usage Tips
The 'I will' shortcut
In casual conversation, you can often use the simpler 'voy a mostrar' (I am going to show) instead of 'mostraré', but 'mostraré' sounds more formal and decisive.

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!
