Frequently Asked Questions
How is 'pasaré' different from 'voy a pasar'?
Both mean 'I will pass,' but 'pasaré' (the simple future) is often used for more definite plans or predictions, and sounds a bit more formal. 'Voy a pasar' (the 'going to' future) is very common in spoken Spanish for immediate plans.
Is 'pasaré' ever used when talking about something happening to me?
Not usually. 'Pasaré' means 'I will do the passing/spending.' If you want to say something will happen *to* you, you would use the impersonal form 'me pasará' (it will happen to me) or a different verb entirely.
