💡 Grammar Points
The Future of 'Yo' (I)
This form, 'olvidaré', is how you talk about what 'I' will do later. Notice the accent mark on the 'é'—this is a key signal for the simple future tense.
Forming the Future Tense
To build this tense for regular verbs like 'olvidar,' you simply attach the ending ('-é') directly to the entire base word (olvidar + é). The base word never changes!
❌ Common Pitfalls
Confusing Present and Future
Mistake: "Yo olvido mañana."
Correction: Yo olvidaré mañana. (You must use the future form when talking about future actions, even though English sometimes uses the present tense.)
⭐ Usage Tips
Use with 'Nunca'
A very common and dramatic way to use this verb is with 'nunca' (never): 'Nunca olvidaré...' (I will never forget...).

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between 'olvidaré' and 'voy a olvidar'?
Both mean 'I will forget.' 'Olvidaré' (simple future) is generally used for more distant or formal predictions. 'Voy a olvidar' (the 'near future' using 'ir a') is more common in spoken Spanish for immediate or planned future actions.
Why does 'olvidaré' have an accent mark?
The accent mark on the final 'é' tells you where to put the stress when speaking (ohl-vee-dah-RÉ). All 'yo' forms in the simple future tense have this accent mark.
