💡 Grammar Points

Predicting the Future

To talk about what 'we' will do later, just take the base verb 'perder' and add '-emos' to the end. It's one of the easiest patterns in Spanish!

❌ Common Pitfalls

Don't change the stem

Mistake: "pierderemos"

Correction: perderemos. While the verb changes from 'e' to 'ie' in the present (pierdo), it stays as 'perder-' for the whole future tense.

⭐ Usage Tips

Missing people

Use 'perderemos' for missing a bus or a game, but don't use it to say 'we will miss you.' For feelings, use 'te echaremos de menos'.
